#Ploughing22 was an opportunity to change the narrative around Irish agriculture.
We've shown the country that farmers are leading the way on sustainability.
Well done to all the exhibitors, volunteers and attendees for such a positive week ๐

The many faces of a blackthorn hedge:
-One large, dense, cattle nibbled (and lovely)
-One in a period of non-intervention, expanding through suckers. Full bloom
-One horribly over-trimmed, flowerless & on its way out
-One regularly but sensitively trimmed; still thick and dense

#COVID19 has shown us there is a different way of doing things and we must seize the opportunity.
I outlined some ideas to the European Parliament earlier this month:

Year 7 no-till. 7th consecutive crop established without any cultivation. We are literally building soil. Itโs not rocket science. Decent Rotation and an odd cover crop here or there.
