In the course of the project, one demonstration test methodology for milk and its products with reduced lactose content (drinking milk, sour milk, yogurt, kefir, cream, sour cream, cottage cheese, cottage cheese, butter, buttermilk and whey drinks) was prepared, which includes demonstration tests both in Kaunas in the experimental base of the Food Institute of the University of Technology, both in farms (agricultural companies and farmers’ farms) and small companies in different regions of Lithuania. The dissemination of the results of the demonstration tests was carried out during the field days, which were organized after the demonstration tests, so that the participants of the field days could familiarize themselves with the technology, equipment and manufactured products used during the demonstration tests. 8 field days were organized, of which 7 were intended for those working in agriculture and 1 field day was intended for agricultural consultants, teachers of vocational schools and colleges implementing formal and informal training programs in the field of agriculture. For the wider dissemination of the results of demonstration tests and scientific knowledge, 8 seminars were held: 7 seminars for those working in agriculture and 1 seminar for agricultural consultants, teachers of vocational schools and colleges implementing formal and non-formal training programs in the field of agriculture.
2 information leaflets were prepared and 2 articles were written in the republican press, one set of recommendations was prepared and published.
