The annual event awards outstanding leaders within the Macra organisation. In order to be eligible for a Leadership Award, the member must be a county officer.

Macra na Feirme president Thomas Duffy said: “The challenges of leadership in the modern era can only be faced by well-prepared, enthusiastic and committed individuals. The finalists here today demonstrate those traits in abundance and display the best of what Macra has to offer in terms of their leadership in their communities.”
Minister of Justice and Equality Charlie Flanagan and ABP retail account manager Noreen Walsh also attended the event.
“It is inspiring to see the enthusiasm and commitment that these young people display for Macra na Feirme and their rural communities,” said Walsh.
