Dear current and future ETP members !
Being practical farmers we all know how important it is to share information between farms in order to gain an outside view on one’s own business and to prepare it for future challenges.
These challenges can for example be growth, coping with production problems or environmental and political legislation that may impact the individual business as well as the whole industry.
If you are farming other crops then turf, you will already know about the benefits of an industry association. ETP is the perfect and only platform in Europe to provide these services to the turfgrass producers in this niche market, who otherwise have very little opportunity to interact with each other in an non-competitive environment.
The next event that will allow this interaction and education is the next farm visit to Østfold Gress AS in Norway, which will take place from the 12th to the -13th of September this year.
It is possible to register on the ETP for this event and also to renew your ETP membership if you are not already have done it. Johnny Trandem, the owner of Østfold Gress AS and former member of the ETP board has put together a fantastic program which will be interesting to all turfgrass producers in Europe and the affiliated industries. Why not bring your family for a holiday in and around beautiful Oslo, where this event is based ?! To profit from early registration discounts please register online by August 1st: http://turfgrassproducers.eu/2019farmtour/
The host and the whole ETP-team is looking very much forward to welcoming you in Norway this year ! – Do not miss it !
With best regards
Albrecht Freiherr Knigge
ETP President
