NOW COVERING COUNTY SLIGO!!

Meet Eoin O’Donoghue who recently joined the team at Cavan Grassland Consultancy. Eoin will be covering his native County Sligo.

A bit about Eoin... Eoin is 22 years old and grew up on his family farm in Monasteraden, Sligo. He studied Agriculture and Environmental management in GMIT. He has over 5 years experience in the agricultural industry between Ireland and England.

In 2018 he spent 6 months on an English dairy research farm where he was the grassland manager. He was fundamental in introducing grass measuring to the farm in England and set up a paddock grazing system in order to utilise their cheapest feed, which of course is grass. Grass measuring allowed him to monitor grass growth, to assess the performance of each paddock and improved the quality of grass the cows were grazing. This made it easier for the farmer to match grass supply with demand and it allowed him to develop a fertiliser plan for the farm also. This is where his fundamental experience of grassland management began and he has continued to expand on it since returning to Ireland.

If you are based in the Sligo area and want to avail of a grassland management service please get in touch today as Eoin is ready to hit the ground running this spring.
