What our users say
It's a very informative and user friendly platform for all producers, trainers and everyone in the agricultural production chain.
The training opened my mind to familiar areas, health safety and hygiene, and new areas such as organic agriculture and ethical production.
The offline mode is a plus because it
allows experts to continue learning in the absence of an internet
connection.
