performance. Today, our involvement with the dairy farm is a full-spectrum
operation from the production of forages in the field right through to our
commitment to the well-being of all the animals on the farm. We support
farmers with their species selection, seeding techniques, soil preparation and
in choosing the most appropriate harvesting method for their farm.
Belisle provides feeding programs that first and foremost make use of the
feed grown on the farm. Then, we complement the ration with appropriate

talented and high achieving undergraduates in South Africa. Our undergraduate fellows are working with seven different amazing organizations focused
on HIV/AIDs prevention, sustainability, entrepreneurship training, youth
development, job creation, and community development. They are also going
through an intensive leadership and personal development training, with
mentoring, coaching and reflection seminars. Our McGill alumni worked on
these themes and can testify of their experience with Emzingo as eye-opening. We have 20 fantastic students from wonderful universities such as Notre
Dame, Princeton, UVA and McGill (7 B.Com undergraduates) participating
this year. Next year we will be hosting this program in Peru, Brazil, and South
Africa and offering it during the semester in partnership with Universidad del
