Burren Farmers win Newbie Award
Chris Nolan, AIB agri advisor and sponsor of the Newbie competition, presents winning cheque to Cathal and Bronagh O’Rourke and Gordon Peppard, Teagasc, competition organiser.
A Co Clare farming family who diversified to future-proof their business for the next generation have been named winners of this year's Newbie New Entrant Competition.
Cathal O'Rourke’s family has been farming the lands commercially for many generations. He and his wife Bronagh identified the opportunities to take the farm business in a different direction using the existing assets already available to them.
