The First IDF Dairy Farming Summit was held in Edinburgh from 25-27 June and you can now view the presentations from this important event, together with the five films of dairy farmers from around the world, at the http://www.sustainabledairyfarming.com/default.htm website.

The Edinburgh event is intended to be the first of a series of events for dairy farmers that will be held around the world and this site has been set up not only to present the key findings from Edinburgh but also to preview future events.
