Teagasc online videos promote Irish family farms to a global audience

Teagasc is promoting the Irish family farm to a global audience with a series of online videos, starting with the Calvey family from Mayo.

The initiative is tied into the UN Food and Agriculture’s ‘Year of the Family Farm’.

Around the world, the profile of family farming and small holders is being raised by focusing attention on its significant role in providing food security and nutrition, improving livelihoods, protecting the environment, and achieving sustainable development.
