The Energy in Agriculture Conference is taking place at Gurteen College in North Tipp today.

It’s the second year of the event with 30-percent more exhibitors and double the crowds expected.

It’s being co-hosted by the college, Tipperary County Council, Teagasc, the IFA and the Tipperary Energy Agency.

IFA Renewables Chairman James Murphy says farmers want clearer guidelines on how to introduce the new technologies to their farms.
