Straw bales offer food for thought

Farmers with bales of straw at Togher Cross in the ICSA West Cork Fodder Relief Initiative; ICSA West Cork chairman Dermot Kelleher (third from left) was one of the main organisers.

Drivers on Cork’s South Link road were twisting in their seats to look at a truck delivering round bales of straw to West Cork on Monday.

The delivery was part of an ICSA initiative to alleviate pressure caused by a scarcity of winter fodder in the area.
