€1m project to help expansion after quotas

Dairygold Co-op has again joined with Teagasc and is investing €1m in a programme to help its milk suppliers achieve profitable and sustainable expansion in the post-quota era.

The programme was recently launched by Agriculture Minister Simon Coveney on the Looney farm at Burnfort, near Mallow, Co Cork.

These joint programmes are nothing new for Dairygold, which puts the best interest of its suppliers at the centre of its priorities, and this is its sixth official joint programme with Teagasc.
