Paula Hynes: A visit from Cambodia via UCC

The reality is that if you help a farmer, you help a family, writes Aherla dairy farmer Paula Hynes.

We are no strangers to having international visitors on our farm and the one thing I love about meeting people from new countries is that it is always a learning experience for us as well, with us also getting to know farming practices from other countries. 

This week, amidst the hectic schedule of calving season, we hosted a delegation from Cambodia, which comprised university researchers and Ministry for Agriculture staff.
