Season 3: Making an organic suckler system work for you

Update: 2024-06-08

Description

This week, we meet Sligo based suckler farmer Niall Higgins. Niall farms in partnership with his father. They keep a herd of 25 suckler cows and sell young animals at the weanling and yearling stage at their local organic mart.

He talks about how straight forward the switch has been, stock and grassland management in organics and why preventative health management has saved them time and money.
