Ploughing Championships set farming future - Markey

Family farmer and Fine Gael MEP, Colm Markey, has spoken about the importance of the National Ploughing Championships. The championships start next week. It will be the first time the show is back in full since the covid pandemic. The Irish government has committed to a 25 per cent cut in greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture by 2030.  Colm Markey says that will be one of the major topics of conversation as farmers gather to see new technology and discuss and see what lies ahead.
