Monitor Farms - Teagasc/Glanbia Joint Programme
An integral part of the Programme is the establishment of eleven Monitor Farms. These farms will be used to show best practice in the delivery of the Joint Programme. Each Monitor Farm will work to an agreed Physical and Financial Plan. Check out the Performance data from these farms.
