• •A meeting between Project’s side and and10 model farms’ owners in VinhThinhcommune was held at VinhThinh’sPeople Committee on 12 June 2009, led by MrKoji Shimokawa-Project’s long term expert, and MrPhuong Van Vy, Project’s counterpart. The purpose of this meeting is to create more chance for both two sides (Project and dairy farmers) to meet with each other and exchange ideas and information. After the 1stevaluation, we already sent results to individual farms, but there has not many opportunities for farmers to get together, so it is ideal to have such kind of meeting so that farmers can update information and based on comparing with other farms, they become aware of their farming condition/level and make timely improvements and corrections.
• Similarly, a meeting for 10 model farms in MocChauarea was also held on 18 June.
