Tonight’s main topic was the weather….We were joined by Eamonn Grace, Dairy Adviser with Teagasc in Carlow and by Philip Donohue who farms in Goresbridge. Topics covered concentrated on the management of farms during this heavy weather and the slow growth this season.
We were joined on the phone by MEP Seán Kelly who brought us up to date on current issues at the European Parliament and the wider political issues at play in Brussels, Brexit being the main and persistent issues.
