Tiempo de lectura: 3 mins.

The IICA Delegation in Canada was thrilled to learn that Bob Lang, livestock expert and long-standing colleague was being inducted in the Ontario Agricultural Hall of Fame.  As an expert devoted to promoting Canadian agriculture and sharing knowledge, there are few countries that Bob has not visited, each with its own anecdotal reference.  Wherever he ventures, his humour and communication style have ensured that he is fondly regarded by recipients of his training interventions.

The Delegation has benefited from numerous articles as well as professional connections brokered by this quiet, thoughtful and dedicated man.  The team was therefore pleased recently to share in the occasion of celebrating this milestone achievement with colleagues from EastGen, Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada as well as GrassHill Farms.
