O’Dea hails the role of rural shows
Speaking during a visit to the 51st Cappamore Show in Co Limerick, he said vast changes have taken place in the countryside in the last 10 years.
He said rural Ireland has become so built up that in some ways it has lost its sense of being rural, but gatherings like that at Cappamore give people who pursue their livelihoods in the countryside a chance to come together and showcase their interests.
