Última Improving Entrepreneurship in Farming: The Impact of a Training Programme in Dutch Dairy Farming AgEcon Bergevoet, Ron H.M.; Giesen, G.W.J.; Saatkamp, H.W.; van Woerkum, C.M.J.; Huirne, Ruud B.M.. Due to external and internal changes in dairy farming, entrepreneurial competencies are becoming increasingly important for dairy farmers. Investigating the possibility to improve these competencies by means of a training program is the main topic of the reported research. First the relations between the entrepreneurial competencies and farmer and farm characteristics were determined. To improve entrepreneurial competencies a training program was designed and executed.
