Visitor from UC Davis

We planned for many years to conduct a course for students from UC Davis on tropical agriculture at University of Peradeniya, but were unable to launch it due to war situation in Sri Lanka. War having ended we are finally conducting the course in July 2010.

Paul Marcotte, Associate Director of International Programs at UC Davis visited Sri Lanka in January to finalize arrangements. We visited University Dry Zone Farm Campus with Paul.

I am happy about the success of this program which I helped initiate while at UC Davis. We all hope it becomes an annual event!
