SAC GOES DOWN THE HIGH TECH ROUTE
Farmers, crofters and vets in Argyll and the Islands recently participated in the largest
videoconference link-up, yet undertaken by SAC to see and hear SAC Vets talk on
liver fluke in livestock. The videoconference linked together 12 centres enabling
people at each centre to participate fully in the proceedings, to ask questions and to
hear the answers. Organised by SAC’s Farm Business Services Office in Oban, the
use of videoconferencing provided a very practical way of dispersing information and
communicating knowledge to this wide geographical area, in a short time scale and at
realistic costs.
