Teagasc Pig Welfare Workshops 2023

The Teagasc Pig Development Department will be running two certified pig welfare workshops on the 22nd of March in the Horse and Jockey Hotel, Co. Tipperary at 2pm and on the 23rd of March in the Kilmore Hotel, Co. Cavan at 2pm.

This workshop gives a thorough overview of pig welfare regulations, considerations and best practice and has been developed in collaboration with the Pig Development Department Advisory, Research and Education team. This workshop fulfils the welfare training requirement of the Bord Bia Pig Quality Assurance Scheme, whereby each farm is required to have at least one member of staff pig welfare certified.

We have contacted all those that have previously expressed interest in attending however there is currently spaces available in each location so if you wish to register for either workshop please contact Niamh Allen at 025 42457 or niamh.allen@teagasc.ie to secure your space.
