The reduction of methane emission by cattle is one of the subjects on which the research by Provimi     is focused. In addition, research is also conducted into the sustainability of feed in other production     animals. After an explanation of the measuring techniques with regard to methane emission and the highlights of the research by Provimi, the experimental facility will be visited in groups. 

Field trip to the dairy farm of the partnership firm Van Wijk in Waardenburg
The partnership firm Van Wijk is one of the participants in the project ‘Koeien en Kansen' (Cows and      Opportunities). This is a project which has been running for many years. In this project a number of      ‘pioneer companies' explore how new challenges in the environmental field can be taken up at the company level. They receive guidance on this from WUR-LR in Lelystad by means of knowledge instruments, among other tools. The dairy farm will be visited after an explanation of the objectives of the project has been given first. Also, a short presentation will be given of the way in which Dutch dairy farms have to deal with ‘Land Use Change'.
