  • Lack of Northern Irish content

    Good podcasts with thoughtful discussion but the lack of Northern Irish content is extremely frustrating and quite honestly disrespectful to your listeners north of the border.

  • Could be better

    The sound quality is often poor. Content is good and balanced but overall feels dated.

Young Stock Podcast - All things beef and grass with Nikki Kennedy

Nikki, originally from New Zealand, came to Ireland for a student exchange and stayed due to the experience, later joining Chagas as Grass10 advisor, illustrating how international experience enriches Irish farming practice.
Young Stock Podcast - All things beef and grass with Nikki Kennedy
Q: What was the take-home message for farmers from Beef 2026 and the grass stand?
The takeaway was that grass clover mixtures can improve cattle performance and reduce fertilizer costs, and that soil pH and liming are foundational to getting the most from any grazing system.
Young Stock Podcast - All things beef and grass with Nikki Kennedy
Q: What's your role in Chagas at the minute?
Nikki explains she is a Grass10 advisor focusing on grazing and optimizing grass utilization, with experience in managing a sheep farm and a background in ag science from Lincoln University.
Inside the Farmers Journal - is a part time farmer an active farmer?
Q: Will there be flexibility around act of farmer, or will this be a broad European decision?
Flexibility is being sought, but there is caution about undermining the common rules; Ireland aims for a space where flexibility is allowed without fragmenting CAP across the union.
Inside the Farmers Journal - is a part time farmer an active farmer?
Q: Has anything been decided or proposed on the active farmer definition yet?
There is not a single final definition; it's a balancing act across member states, with Ireland seeking flexibility but aiming for consensus so that part-time farmers can be recognized as active if they produce food and earn a living from farming.
