Teagasc and the Irish Cattle Breeding Federation are set to run a series of 16 suckler breeding farm walks across the country over the coming weeks.
The events will focus on the main requirements suckler farmers will be expected to meet to maximise their payments for the new Suckler Carbon Efficiency Programme (SCEP) launched last week by the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (DAFM), and the key breeding technologies that will help to achieve them.
