Benefit

You will receive a one-off payment of approximately 1,340 EUR (around 10,000 DKK). This will be provided either as a grant, which you may keep, or as a loan, which you must repay. The money is intended to support training and research in the field of the production or distribution of dairy products, with a focus on cheese production and distribution. It is paid out by the ‘Grosserer Rasmus Hansens Mindefond’ (the Rasmus Hansen Memorial Foundation), a Danish foundation established in 1901.
