Dairylink Ireland spring farm walk on the McGrade family farm at Dromore, Co Tyrone.
The development of two farm businesses that have been participating in the Dairylink Ireland programme over the past three years will be discussed at on-farm open days next week.
The first event is being held on the farm of Nigel Corbett at Garvaghy Church Road, Banbridge, Co Down, BT32 3SB, on Tuesday 7 November.
Robin Clements is hosting a similar event on Thursday 9 November on his farm at Keenogue Road, Trillick, Co Tyrone, BT78 3NY.
Both events run from 11am to 1pm, are open to the public and are free to attend.
The farm walks will focus on four key areas:
Breeding the optimal cow for each farm system.
Heifer rearing for 24-month-old calving.
Developing farm infrastructure and soil fertility.
Business planning for profitable milk production.
Dairylink Ireland is a business development programme based around six project farms that operate a range of dairying systems in counties Tyrone, Down and Cavan.
The main objective of the programme is to optimise the use of on-farm resources to maximise profit from milk production.

The main objective of the programme is to optimise the use of on-farm resources to maximise profit from milk production.
Dairy-sector sentiment has been rocked by plummeting milk intakes, depressed global markets, falling processor profits and a poor outlook for farmgate prices.
The 'huge uncertainty' around the nitrates derogation has left farmers wondering what the future is for them, Lakeland Dairies’ chair Niall Matthews has said.
“It takes time to deliver change on any farm. We are not where we want to be yet, but we are on a path."
