Information<br />

The Netherlands is traditionally the land of<br />

windmills, cheese and tulips, but isn’t this<br />

image something of a cliché nowadays?<br />

Well, not really. Centuries of expertise in land<br />

drainage (using the famous windmills) have<br />

made the Netherlands world-renowned for its<br />

water management skills. So what about the<br />

cheese and the tulips? The answer is that the<br />

Netherlands is also one of the largest<br />

exporters of agri-food and horticultural<br />

products in the world.<br />
