I did 6 weeks internship at Van den Borne aardappelen as a part of my 16 weeks agricultural training required for the bachelor degree. I spent a lot of time with probing and analysing the samples. I visited many fields three times so I was able to see the growing of potatoes in many different kind off fields. On Van den Borne I was able to see the newest technology and how they use it in real farm. I also learnt to use many different apps that makes it easier to manage all the fields.

Being abroad was a live changing experience and I learnt a lot of agriculture on the Netherlands. I also improved my language skills and met new friends so it was absolutely worth it. Thanks to Jacob for giving me this opportunity.
