The BTS ACSE (Analyse, Conduite & Stratégie de l’Entreprise Agricole) – Farm Management Undergraduate Course at ESA, completed one-month farm placement abroad.

Half of the students (20 out of 40 students) chose Ireland for their destination. They experienced the Irish dairy farming system during peak calving season, in February and March. A great moment for a farm internship.

ESA students are greatly appreciated by their host farmers. The farm internship abroad is an important part of the first year Farm Management Undergraduate Course. ESA recommends an internship of at least four weeks.

The course Coordinator Samuel Clochard and the International Internship Coordinator Rémy Roulleau have visited 20 different dairy farms in the west part of Ireland (Co Cork; Co Limerick; Co Tipperary and Co Kerry ) and enjoyed the friendly welcome of our host farmers.
