Adding value to the Irish milk pool with Conor Mulvihill, Dairy Industry Ireland
The Teagasc Dairy Edge podcast marks a significant milestone this week, as the 500th episode has been released.
First aired on the 11th of January 2018, Emma-Louise Coffey was joined by dairy farmer, John Leahy, and Teagasc ruminant nutritionist, Brian Garry, to discuss preparing for the spring calving season and managing forage supplies.
Since then, the podcast audience has grown significantly with the series now surpassing one million listens in total.
To mark the milestone, the podcast is looking beyond the farm gate to the wider dairy industry with James Dunne speaking to Conor Mulvihill, Director of Dairy Industry Ireland.
They discuss the remit of Dairy Industry Ireland within the wider industry, the current market outlook, what ‘value-added’ really means for Irish dairy, the importance of the grass-fed story, and some of the key challenges and opportunities facing the industry.
