Robust Dairy Farming for Future Challenges

The Dairy Edge

About this episode

This week’s Dairy Edge brings you some of the main insights from the 2024 Teagasc National Dairy Conference, including Áine Murray and Donal Patton, Teagasc Grassland Researchers, who gave an in-depth look on current grassland performance, the metrics that farmers should be focusing on and how to achieve these on commercial farms, even in difficult conditions.

 

Pat Dillon, Teagasc Director of Research, also spoke to James Dunne about improving water quality with a particular focus on the Munster Blackwater River Catchment, including primary actions required at farm level to reduce nutrient loss and why a whole catchment approach is important.

 

Plus Niamh Doyle heard from some of those farmers in attendance at the conference to get their thoughts on the day.
