Tillage Farming to Thrive as Global Market Volatility Drives Demand

Bank of Ireland's head of agriculture, Eoin Lowry, sees a bright future for tillage farming in Ireland. He believes that the increasing importance of local grain supply due to global market volatility will benefit Irish farmers.

Tillage farms are becoming more diversified with better crop rotation and a focus on soil management, efficiency, and labor reduction.

Lowry notes that tillage farmers have low levels of debt and are investing in new technology using TAMS grants. He's confident that the sector will continue to grow and sees it as vital for the country's agricultural industry.
