Oak Park farm autumn planning is on track

Brendan Burke, Farm Manager of the Teagasc Oak Park research farm in Carlow, joins Michael Hennessy to review the season to date. 

They discuss how weather conditions have influenced crop growth and yields on the research farm and how these challenges mirror those experienced by tillage farmers across the country. 

Brendan shares insights into the performance of crops this year, key management decisions, and the lessons learned from the season. 

The conversation highlights the important role Oak Park plays in testing and validating new technologies, crop management practices, and innovations for Irish tillage farming.
