Farmview: Drought, Forestry & the Future of Irish Agriculture

On this week’s Farmview, brought to you by Tirlán, we take a look at the concerns that a carbon tax could potentially double the price of fertiliser, and what that could mean for farm input costs and farmers’ margins.

We also look ahead to the Tramore Racing Festival, with all the excitement and entertainment expected over the coming days, before turning our attention to the Iverk Show  celebrating its 200th year and taking place on Saturday, August 22nd.

All that and more on this week’s Farmview, brought to you by Tirlán.
