Oliver Moore: Co-op model ideal for snail farming
Whatever about interest levels, there are only a handful of snail farmers in Ireland at present. In that context, I was asked to make a presentation on co-ops, on behalf of the Centre for Co-operative Studies in UCC, where I’m also a part-time lecturer.
Farming is both a solitary business and something we in Ireland have a long tradition of co-operating about. It’s worth unpacking how a co-op could benefit farmers interested in this new market opportunity.
