With 2,400 specialized professionals, we constantly strive towards new agricultural revolutions. We operate not only from our Campus in Maassluis (the building with the highest sustainability performance in the Netherlands) but also from other international locations. Together, our aim is to make dairy farming interesting for the next generation.
