Irish and Welsh farmers in net project to boost income
Terracelt is an ambitious new internet-based project that aims to provide farmers, rural businesses and the general public with a host of services on a single site.
A joint project between the Farmers’ Union of Wales (FUW) and the Irish Cattle and Sheep Farmers’ Association (ICSA), Terracelt has received a grant of more than €500,000 from the European Union’s Interreg fund. FUW president Gareth Vaughan said the aim was to provide farming families in Wales and Ireland with an opportunity to harness the latest technology and boost their incomes.
