@Jimmulh We're all at it great weather for the job

I'm a tillage farmer today!🌾Cutting our 6 row Belfry winter barley. Seems to be doing OK. Moisture reading of 13% so well ripe.👍

@FJDairy Another possible heading here is that it would cost them to much money!

The Department has said that rolling blood testing out across all herds would lead to an "awful lot of false positives". eu1.hubs.ly/H0lbg-G0

@brianrushe81 Merry go round is getting full now brian

What the fuck was I thinking…..reading a #TBtest on Friday the 13th Back on the merry go round…. #lockedup

@richrobscows1 The calf prices look to be akin to normal market prices, does that trend prevail for the other stock?

Market Drayton Orange market for tb restricted farms,the quality calves were no different to non tb farms,definitely feeling a lot better about our situation when we start calving in July,trade absolutely on fire 🔥 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🐄💷💷💷💷💷💷💷💷💷

@AidanAidanmc @anthony_amburke @PM_animalhealth It helped the calves get through a rota outbreak here, It seems to just aid any upset ,you might only see a calf off their feed once and theyl bounce back, we are giving 30 ml in the morning to all calves born since march 10th.

@anthony_amburke @lu_casey @PM_animalhealth In what way do u think it helped?

This ⁦@PM_animalhealth⁩ is mighty stuff, but I hope Tommy does free refills!!!

@chakilleen No such thing as a closed herd with wildlife levels rampant at present, due to an under resourced wildlife density reduction programme, but yet its acceptable to keep culling our animals some hypocrisy! Your not alone Dara

Disappointing morning here. First time seeing one of these in my memory. Closed herd last 5 years. #tb

@teagascgrams @Friesian_man 😂

@Friesian_man I’ve been asked three times in the last week when I was going to retire. I must try selling a Few calves.

I got called a young farmer today. Now the person who said it was trying to deal with me on a group of calves.....but still.

@DarraghScott @AidanAidanmc @Walsh50Brendan @justymull @Hylo67 And the ball is in

@AidanAidanmc @Walsh50Brendan @justymull @Hylo67 Maybe if I milked once a day I'd have time.

These feeders should be presented to every livestock ag graduate on course completion #greatyokes

@brianrushe81 Here here👍

Im a big fan of the national genomic programme….very big fan on these mornings when I rock in and I have six calves and five cows calved and I haven’t a scooby doo what belongs to what.. #tagemandbagem

🇪🇺🇮🇪 A big thank you to Tadgh Buckley of @IFAmedia for attending today’s crucial discussion on the future of agriculture at the European Parliament. The Irish perspective was strongly represented, especially on key issues like the next CAP budget. @fiannafailparty @BillyKelleherEU

@ajwwoods @MartinMerrick @farmersjournal 👍

@lu_casey @MartinMerrick @farmersjournal I’d say €3.40-€3.80/kg

I'll take @martinmerrick €10/kg in Balla mart in Co. Mayo tonight and raise it, well relatively. These Spring 2024 born Herefords weighing 332kg hit €1510 (€4.54/kg) today in Ennis. Check out what's happening the mart trade including who's buying in this week's @farmersjournal

@CHansenEU Hi Mr Hansen your visit to Ireland was well received, we hope that your positive and enthusiastic ambition for farmers will come to fruition and that we can be confident that our honest days work will result in an honest days pay. I attach a photo of a letter in this week's IFJ

Thank you to the broad range of 🇮🇪stakeholders active in the food & farming sector for the dialogue today.

@FJDairy "Could" being the key word here ,the department "could" also properly resource and implement a functioning wildlife control and density reduction programme, why is it deemed acceptable to cull bovines adhoc due to this disease but the predatorless carriers are untouchable!

The movement of cows from herds with multiple TB reactors could be restricted for three years. eu1.hubs.ly/H0fNF3f0

@AidanAidanmc 👏🥳

Still making the most of the snow here in Cork!!

@eamon_sheehan @1noeloconnor @AidanAidanmc @SeanMoy98947674 @farmersjournal This is a farce! 3 million invested into research that investigates the spread of tb within a functioning herd is what we badly need at the moment, absolutely no where near enough money being ploughed into tb research by our government

@1noeloconnor @AidanAidanmc @SeanMoy98947674 @farmersjournal Unreal isn’t it. €3million to rewrite a study that has already been done.

An EU-wide study on cow-calf contact dairy farming headed up by University College Dublin has recently received funding of €3m. eu1.hubs.ly/H0fr2MZ0

Under the Mercosur Trade agreement, Irish and EU farmers are being sold out for big business. #NoToMercosur #YesToFarming

@KealyJamie Fair play jamie👍

Delighted to take home the trophy today, was really surprised to be honest.
