Agroecological Transition of the European Dairy Farming System (TEDY) is a DAFM/Horizon Europe project which uses Agroecological Living Labs (ALLs) across participating countries as platforms for real-world experimentation and evaluation of agroecological practices.
The ALL in Ireland is based across two sites, the Ballymaloe Organic Climate Farm in Shanagarry, Cork; and catchment farms of the Waters of LIFE project. It involves knowledge exchange across diverse farms, involving farmers, advisors, project staff and scientists, and the development of co-designed, shared actions, by sharing knowledge across the two sites, for agroecology and improved water quality.
