First on the show Matt spoke with Eoin Lowry of the Irish Farmers Journal on a range of issues with a main focus on the Glanbia Co-Op vote next week, with important financial implications for shareholders.

We then heard from Marrianne Cronin of Irish SeedSavers on the fascinating conservation work being undertaken at their seed bank in Scariff, County Clare. For further information you can contact them via their website

Matt attended a conference on sheep management and the Brexit implications for the sector and brought us an excerpt from a talk give by Teagasc economist Kevin Hanrahan. The full speech is below (with apologies for some background noise in the piece)

We then had the weekly Mart Report with Michael Lynch
