Alison Sinnott

Four years ago, I asked this beautiful soul to hang on tight until I graduate from @ucdagfood. Today I'm off to throw up my cap and this special lady waved me off - now she just has to wait another four for the PhD!!🎓 #UCD

All of this is prior to 2019 🙃 Judge Martin Nolan is a disgrace …

A lovely evening this week spent celebrating the recent graduates of the Professional Diploma in Dairy Farm Management! It was an absolute pleasure to organise the event for the next generation of Irelands farm managers 🐄🌱

Smashing few days at @EAAPofficial, my 1st conference, last week. I was in good company during the 'Rethinking Pasture Based Production Systems" session with lots of familiar faces including chair @PallasTb A great experience even if my legs buckled at the forethought! 🙈😂

@PallasTb @ASAireland @nbambie1 @babsmac1 @ucdagfood Congrats Tommy! Best of luck with the year! 👏

I'm delighted to have taken up the role of @ASAireland President today and am greatly looking forward to the year ahead working with @nbambie1 @babsmac1 and all of council. Its a great honor to lead our organisation at this challenging and exciting time. @ucdagfood

Great talk at #eaap2022 from @alison_sinnott investigating #cowcalfcontact systems in grazing dairy cows 🐄 cow-contact ⬆️ calf growth rates ⬇️ behavioural stereotypes pre-wean but ⬆️ morbidity and post-wean stressors vs no contact calves 🐄 Pros and cons for both systems

@PhilipTyndall @jimhamilton4 HEAVEN!! If this isn't whats waiting for me at the pearly gates, I'll be sour 😂

You'd be parched! #soundon

A whistle stop tour of a local dairy farm in Agassiz, BC. An incredible set up. Milking 240 cows with 6 GEA robots. Built in 2016 and has to be the cleanest cow shed I have set foot in! Big focus of cow comfort and underfoot conditions!

@OtherCosmonauta I agree.

@OtherCosmonauta I wouldn't know, I don't sexually abuse calves 💚🤍🧡

@LeclercVicky Ah Vicky, welcome to my twitter page. You're l going to hate it here! Have fun 💚🤍🧡

@alison_sinnott Dairy farms are torture chambers for sentient beings. #ditchdairy #animalsfeel #bekindtoeverykind #IamTheirVoice

A Kilkenny girl painted over Christmas. She is a bit like myself - eating something most of the time 😂😁

@eamonc91 No way?! That's class. She must be very well looked after so 😁👌

@alison_sinnott You definitely done a super job, the oldest cow on the farm heading for her 14th Birthday!!

@nbambie1 @eamonc91 Thanks Niamh!! 😁🥰

A fantastic painting Alison did for me of @eamonc91 favourite cow 🐄🐄 Couldn’t recommend Alison enough for any painting you need. One we will have forever.
