The much anticipated FTMTA Grass & Muck takes place at Gurteen College near Birr on Thursday 17 May.

The site has been a hive of activity in recent days as the FTMTA and exhibitor personnel work to put everything in place for what will be the largest farm machinery event held in Ireland during 2018.

This year’s FTMTA Grass & Muck is the biggest such event ever held and, despite the difficult weather conditions endured over the winter and spring months, the site is in great order. The Gurteen College farm staff led by farm manager Ken Flynn have done an excellent job on managing the grass demo fields in the face of often trying circumstances.
