Getting Down and Dirty - Lessons learned from Teagasc s Soils programme
Reporter:
);
The Teagasc Heavy Soils Programme was set up in 2011 to develop a network of dairy farms on poorly drained soils to act as a test bed for strategies and management practices that could be implemented to improve the efficiency and performance of farms dominated by such soils, which account for 30% of grasslands nationally.
Teagasc has published a new booklet - ‘Lessons learned - key findings of the Teagasc Heavy Soils programme’.
This new publication outlines the development of the participating farms over the last ten years.
Its publication coincides with the takeover of Teagasc social media accounts today, by one of the participants in the Heavy Soils Programme, Danny Bermingham, to outline what is happening on his farm in County Clare.
