HOW TO RAISE ORGANIC CHICKEN WAS THEME OF THE FIRST IBEM COURSE OF THE YEAR

Two days of learning, exchanging experiences and socializing

In the last week of February, the IBEM held its first course of the year, addressing the main aspects of the creation of organic chickens. With a duration of 12 hours, the course took theoretical classes in Porto Alegre and had its practical classes at Granja Porteira Orgânica in Viamão.

The event sold out quickly. Twenty-five people participated, among veterinarians, agronomists, zoo technicians, biologists, university professors and producers, from the states of Rio Grande do Sul, Santa Catarina and São Paulo.

“It is very stimulating to see a group of highly motivated people seeking to improve their knowledge to work on a production system that not only produces healthy food but also cares for the environment and animals,” says Angela Escosteguy, IBEM president and facilitator of the course. For Angela it is always a pleasure to help motivated people to work for a better world. She gives a special thanks to Jurema and Zeno Schneider “for sharing their knowledge and for recieving us so well in the farm where they produce organic eggs.  I return home full of joy and hope for the future renewed”.
