Squealing with delight in a pen of hot sows

IFA president John Bryan has congratulated the FBD Young Farmer of the Year, Paul Kehoe, from Gorey, Co Wexford, and called on Agriculture Minister Brendan Smith, and Teagasc, to address the serious situation of young farmers being turned away from agricultural colleges this year.

The prestigious Young Farmer of the Year awarded has today been awarded to Paul Kehoe from Gorey in Co Wexford.

MARRY a farmer and you’ll be doing all right is what many young girls growing up in Ireland were told.

THE FBD Young Farmer of the Year who will be named next week is likely to be a well-qualified part-timer, strongly involved in IFA and Macra and the local community.
