30 farmers are being sought to take part in a Sustainable Innovation Project on the Dingle Peninsula.
The project is a collaboration between farmers, the Dingle Hub, Teagasc, Kerry Agribusiness, the IFA and Dingle based technology company, Net Feasa.
It aims to lead and support a move towards more sustainable farming, reduce costs and grow margins.
Dairy, beef or sheep farmers who are selected will be asked to trial on-farm sensor technology.
The sensors, which measure milk production, grass management, weather, soil moisture and slurry production, have already been used on a pilot basis on six farms.
The closing date for applications is July 23rd and more information can be found here

Successful farms will be notified by the 31st of August 2021
