DeHeus Kidzz

Today De Heus Animal Nutrition launched this completely new website. A website made for and by children. The purpose of the website is to give children an insight into the livestock sector and to explain to them, in an objective way, how animals grow, give milk and eggs and how animal feed is made. On this website children get the chance to learn more about the animals themselves and how important the agricultural sector is.
