8. Diversification The diversification programme for the Greenfield estate is ongoing, with new ideas being explored all the time. Many of the projects already established in the diversification programme are designed to give the estate workers and especially the younger generation, as well as young people from surrounding villages, a broad range of training and career opportunities. Projects like manure production, milk production and vegetable growing for the domestic market help to keep the money within the estate rather than paying out to contractors.
