Help the Organizers of Climate Farm Demo Demonstrations (or Other Livestock Open Days) to Close Their Demonstrations by Offering a Discussion and Conclusion Exercise with the Visitors/Breeders Present at the Demonstration
As part of the Climate Farm Demo project, we are opening the farms of our breeders involved in the project. We have carried out several demonstrations to date. At the end of the first open days, we realized how interesting it is to conclude the demonstration with a final exchange with the participants.
This “closing” exchange has 2 objectives:
• Collect feedback from visitors present at the demo (what you liked about the demonstration, on the organization of the day, what could be improved, etc.) with the aim of improving the next demonstrations.
• Give feedback to the farmers who received us by proposing to the participants present to send them a positive point, a piece of advice.
The benefit is it helps to end the demonstration with an exchange between the participants.
To create this concluding exchange we suggest using the flower-shaped drawing below. A facilitator questions the participants and notes their feedback on the flower, either directly with a pencil on it or using post-its
and positions them on the diagram.
This ‘flower’ tool, which we have adapted from the FARM DEMO toolkit, is proving to be a very interesting and powerful ally for DEMOs. It enhances the value of the farmer's work and gets the participants involved. It strengthens exchanges and creates links.
