The redeveloped Pairc Ui Chaoimh stadium in Cork city is the new venue for Dairy Day 2023 on 23 November, brought to you by the Irish Farmers Journal.
The last in-person Dairy Day event took place in 2019 but had to be cancelled in subsequent years due to the pandemic.
The show makes a return this year to a new venue on the banks of the River Lee. While Tipperary is the home of hurling, Cork is the home of dairy as the county with the largest number of dairy cows.
Plenty of good hurling games have been played on the pitch in Pairc Ui Chaoimh over the years, but the attention will all be on what’s happening inside the South Stand for Dairy Day.
There are already over 70 trade stands booked in for the event, covering all aspects of dairy farming from animal medicines to farm finance.
As always, a key aspect of Dairy Day are the excellent talks and seminars on technical farming, dairy markets and family farming.
This year's talks will cover a range of topics including;
Highlighting ways to cut costs in light of falling milk prices and stubbornly high costs.Navigating through the changes in the Nitrates Derogation - what it means for farmers on the ground. Actions for positive PR – what farmers can do to protect the image of dairy farming and arm themselves with the facts on dairy. With so much change happening in Irish dairy, we ask key industry leaders about their vision for the sector in the next 10 years. With huge interest in renewable energy the Irish Farmers Journal Renewables Editor Stephen Robb leads a panel discussion on the potentials and pitfalls of anaerobic digestion in rural Ireland. With such an export driven dairy sector, what happens internationally is critically important in Ireland and with this in mind Jack Kennedy is delving deeper into what is happening to dairy supply across the world. Dairy Editor Aidan Brennan and Michael Murphy from AIB will assess different investment options for dairy farmers at different stages of development. Educational paths for new starters to dairy farming and the dairy industry is always an important topic. With changes to the way young people are being trained, we discuss the options and the issues. New product innovations that can utilise technology, make farmers more efficient and more sustainable are always to be welcomed. This year's Dairy Day will incorporate awards for new product innovations that are of benefit and value to Irish dairy farmers. Dairy Day is on Thursday 23 November at Pairc Ui Chaoimh, Marina Road, Cork. Tickets are €20 each but subscribers to the Irish Farmers Journal go free and readers of the Irish Farmers Journal can collect three tokens from the paper for free entry.
