Participation in the Sustainable Farm event

Participation in the Sustainable Farm event

In 2021, at Topilen S.A. – Campo Longley, we made a significant investment in the road for our cows. With the aim of continuing to improve the focus on well-being of our Jerseys. With the technical assistance of CONAPROLE through the “Sustainable Dairy Farm” Program, a survey was carried out, the existing infrastructure was analyzed, and a wide range of customized solutions were designed. As a result of this excellent experience, we participated in another infrastructure project that “Sustainable Farm” also offers: Energy Efficiency, which generated a report that we are pleased to share that there were NO recommendations for electrical changes in our facilities. In 2022 we started with the third project, which we are in the last adjustments to improve the management of effluents from our establishment.

And with great joy last Monday we were invited to participate in the closing event of the Sustainable Dairy Project. Many thanks to all the excellent professionals involved in the Project!

Sponsorship of the event "Uruguay after the Glasgow Pact"

Sponsorship of the event "Uruguay after the Glasgow Pact" organized by GBUA (British University Alumni Association) which was held in collaboration with the British Embassy and Bloomsbury Policy Group on March 22 and 23, 2022

The main objective of the event was to generate an instance for discussion and reflection on the immediate actions to be taken in strategic sectors within the framework of the Glasgow Pact, considering the challenges and opportunities imposed by the climate crisis. It had a first day of conferences and panels in three thematic areas (Mitigation, Adaptation, and Finance and collaboration) developed in person at the British Residence facilities, with the participation of some international speakers through videoconference, and an online workshop for key players on the second day.
Due to the alignment found between Campo Longley and the topics to be discussed, it was a special pleasure to support this initiative and be able to expand the scope of this event and thus achieve a greater impact.

In addition to the support of Campo Longley, this project was financed by the Chevening Alumni Program Fund and has been declared of interest by the Uruguayan Ministry of the Environment.
