ICSC is completing the final phase of a 3-year demonstration project, based in the Havana Province. This project brought Cuban and Canadian farmers together to share their experience in herd management and work towards increasing milk production from sustainable, pasture-based dairy units. This project is notable because it is entirely self sustaining. The project uses an excellent soil management system and solar energy and leaves very little environmental footprint. Women’s roles were enhanced and featured prominently in the project. Both farming communities are benefiting from the knowledge transfer and experience.
