Irish Farmers Journal podcasts

On this week’s Youngstock podcast, Annie McGuinness joins Martin Merrick to talk about her rising social media following, the positives and negatives and her involvement with the Cooley sheep breeders.
Annie McGuinness has seen her social media reach sky rocket from under 10,000 followers to over 80,000 in the space of a few short months. The proud Louth farmer and her viral pet lamb Grá have taken Instagram and Tik Tok by storm, with the dynamic duo featuring on Ireland AM as well as local and national radio.
Annie talks about her background in agriculture, why she began posting content online and how that has grown considerably over the last few months, as well as the negatives and positives of a presence on social media.
Daire and Martin talk about what’s happening with them this week as well as who would play the Farmers Journal team if there was a biopic. Eoin Lowry, Head of Agriculture with Bank of Ireland, chats to Martin about financing land purchases; what banks look at in terms of repayment capacity, deposits and how it may affect a mortgage application.

We report from the World Seed Congress this week. We chat to a French farmer and grain analyst, Arthur Portier, from Argus Media. We met Goldcrop’s Donal Fitzgerald, who was doing business and trading seed at the congress, and we chatted to the North American Grain Export Association on the US-China trade deal and deforestation regulations. It’s a jam-packed episode, and we’ll let you know what’s in the paper as well. The Tillage Podcast is supported by Bayer Crop Science.
