„After any Course I never seen such a desire and need for changes in my people, and indeed in myself”, – Krystian Sopinski, owner of 108-rooms farm in Poland

On 18-20 of September UMDIS Mushroom Information Agency organised the International Harvesting Course with participants from Europe and Asia – on the largest farm in Europe – Sopinscy mushroom farm in Poland. The trainer – Lina Turovska who currently manages picking on 9 farms in Canada. Maksym Yenchenko and Inna Ustylovska from UMDIS managed the Course. -Thank you Inna you and your company great, – writes after the Course Brendan Byrne, owner of Green field Mushrooms in Ireland. The group consisted of 10 people – what gave opportunity everyone to talk in person to a trainer about his farm requirements and get advises. -I thank you from my heart for everything, you are very good people and Yes, will be very effective for my farm! – shares Christinel Olenici from McKenna Mushrooms. The partners of Harvesting Course by UMDIS were Atmo-Control, engineering of climatization for mushroom farms, and Grow-Time, manufacturer of picking trolleys. -Dear Maksym, thank you so much for your help, pls take care and we shall see again soon! – writes Boey Tze Zhou, mushroom producer from Malaysia after the course and UMDIS` trip to see other farms and compost yard in Poland. The Course included picking techniques, organisation of harvesting and motivation – as the main topics.We also thank you very much. I can openly say that after any training I have never seen such a desire and need for changes in my people, and indeed in myself. Today we have set ourselves goals that we want to achieve over the next year. And starting tomorrow we will start implementing them. We are growing for you 💪🏼💪🏼 Krystian Sopinski, owner of Sopinscy farm in Poland, 108 growing rooms.We thank you!!! Truly, the entire team that attended the Course is simply shocked!
