The ninth and final Irish Farmers Journal livestock demonstration at the National Ploughing Championships concluded this afternoon but you can watch it back here.
The livestock demonstration featured a number of steers, bulls, dairy cows and sheep. The quality and commercial potential of each animal was discussed.
The options facing livestock farmers over coming years was discussed and analysed.
Some sectors such as the dairy enterprise will see significant changes because milk quotas are finishing next year and this major change will have knock on consequences on the beef sector in coming years.
