Farm Buildings Seminars
Teagasc and the Irish Farm Buildings Association invite farmers and farm building contractors to a series of Farm Buildings Seminars taking place in April in various locations across the country.
The recent changes to TAMS and the improvement of farm incomes, in particular in dairying are likely to lead to more investment in farm buildings.
Attendees will be informed of their responsibilities in relation to the appointment of Project Supervisors and the overall safety of farm construction.
