Calves reared for Ballyvadin Beef Farm

Nothing is left to chance from the moment calves from four Co Cork dairy herds land at Ballyvadin, Fethard, Co Tipperary, until they are sold as beef aged 18 to 24 months.

The calf to beef demonstration farm, trading as Ballyvadin Beef Farm Ltd, was established in conjunction with Shinagh Estates Ltd, Bandon, Co Cork, and Dawn Meats, to demonstrate the best technologies for profitable and sustainable production of beef calves from the dairy herd.
