Faces of the countryside: why Jan Udo Sparenborg has been farming in Lithuania for 11 years? (VIDEO)
It was Udo who proposed the Green Cross campaign to Lithuanian farmers, following the Green Cross campaign initiated in Germany at the time.
If, as Udo says, he had gone back 15 years, he would never have thought of linking his future with Lithuania.
"The first months in Lithuania were terrible. It always seemed to be raining here," Udo recalls of his first months in Lithuania, when it was very rainy.
How his relatives and friends in Germany react to his life in Lithuania, how long it took him to learn to speak Lithuanian and what he thinks of Lithuania's agricultural policy, see in this interview with Udo Sparenborg. This is our first attempt to show the face of Lithuanian agriculture, what farmers think and why it is important for farmers to talk about themselves and what is going on around them.
