Call for enrollment in the WF learning programme is published in Hungary

GAK, one of the Hungarian partners and the coordinator of the project, has published the first call about the learning opportunity on its webpage. According to the information provided: 

With the support of the EU Erasmus + WiseFarmer project, we will organize free training for small farms and family farmers between October 2020 and March 2021, with the aim of learning how to use digital tools effectively by good agricultural production practices based on local experience.

The program provides a special opportunity to acquire knowledge and skills:

We provide participants with mobile devices on demand (including home learning) with the necessary settings and software.
We can make several paid software available to them free of charge during the learning period and beyond.
An essential element of learning is that the participating farmers solve tasks in pairs with the help of advisors, which are based on the real needs of their own farm.
The participants also receive agricultural advisory assistance and support free of charge, in connection with learning and the solution of specific farming issues and problems.
We plan practical learning that requires a personal presence in a natural environment, at demonstration farms.
