Future Weather Future Farming
Weather has always been a factor in farming. Expert analysis of climate change outlines that we can expect increased variability, and more frequent occurrence of extreme weather events. This requires that our farming systems are resilient to weather shocks. Weather is particularly important to tillage farmers, but this year, grassland farmers were severely impacted by poor weather in the summer /autumn of 2012 and the spring of 2013. This was a costly experience for farmers, particularly so on heavy soil farms which are especially vulnerable to wet weather. Teagasc has monitored the situation on the ground over the year, and data from the Teagasc National Farm Survey will show the impact on farm profitability.

Moorepark Milk Quality Conference 2013
A critical prerequisite for the manufacture of quality dairy products is to start with milk of the highest quality. Abolition of EU milk quotas in 2015 is projected to result in a 2.75 billion litre increase in Irish milk production by 2020. This increase has the potential to put ressure on the current quality standards, while the milk quality criteria requested by milk processors and by customers generally are becoming more strict and rigorous. It is important that requests to milk producers for improved quality milk is accompanied by the necessary information required to produce such improved quality milk.
