The South Tipp Young Farmers Group is holding an information meeting this evening.
It’s the first in-person gathering from the group since the pandemic started.
Daniel Long outlines what the meeting will cover.
“It’s all around the area of contract-rearing. Giving opportunities for dairy farmers to make better use of their time and focusing on milk production and taking the labour of rearing replacements off farm.
“Then from a dry stock perspective its offering an alternative income. It’s different to beef farming but using those skills.
“We have a range of speakers – experts on animal health through to finance.”
The meeting takes place on the farm of David Guiry in Fethard from 7pm.
