  • 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.

  • Lack of Northern Irish content

    A well produced show with thoughtful discussion but the almost complete lack of Northern Irish content is very frustrating.

  • Could be better

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

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Farm Tech Talk - Proposed €26m budget cut, Tullamore Farm updates and livestock trade prices
Q: Is it still worth buying fertiliser given CBAM and the Middle East supply concerns?
Consider securing fertiliser and building storage now; CBAM cost will be a factor but the supply chain and homegrown feed planning are also critical; plan nutrient management and order early.
Farm Tech Talk - Proposed €26m budget cut, Tullamore Farm updates and livestock trade prices
Q: I have autumn-born bulls and hear feeder demand has collapsed this year—what would you suggest we do with heavy bulls?
Prices are down compared to last year; consider holding for a potential late-season sale if quarantine periods or export demand improve, but be mindful of current trade dynamics and seek guidance from live market indicators.
Tillage podcast - World trade and feed imports
Q: How do private–public partnerships and biodiversity or carbon credits affect farmers?
Banks look for data and standardized instruments; biodiversity credits and sustainably linked loans can provide incentives and cheaper financing for farmers who meet certain environmental criteria.
Tillage podcast - World trade and feed imports
Q: What are the World Bank's views on seeds and lending risk for farmers in developing countries?
Seeds are core to raising yields and reducing risk, which in turn makes lending more feasible for banks; better seeds, irrigation, and inputs reduce risk and enable banks to lend more to farmers.
Farm Tech Talk - New TB programme, Brazil fights back and BISS
Q: What is the mechanism for the TB on-farm biosecurity program and how is it funded?
A 40 percent grant is available for eligible investments (minimum 200, maximum 800 per farm), deducted at the point of purchase via the retailer, with retailers reclaiming the subsidy from the Department.
