The interest at the moment is very much on the supply of diesel. The focus at the Irish Farmers Journal stand will concentrate on the quality of farm diesel, handling techniques and the impact of poor fuel management on machinery.

The information talks will run three times per day with a questions and answers session. Also, this year the Irish Farmers Journal is sponsoring a New Holland T6155 tractor as a prize at the FTMTA Farm Machinery Show, in conjunction with WR Shaw Tullamore.

The lucky winner will have six months use (500 engine hours) on this new tractor from WR Shaw.
