Two new regional-advisory manager appointments have been made in Teagasc.
Pádraig Fitzgerald has been appointed as regional advisory manager in Tipperary, while Enda Geoghegan has been appointed as regional advisory manager in Galway/Clare.
The vacancies arose following the retirements of Donal Mullane and Pat Clarke.
Fitzgerald joined Teagasc in 2004 and has worked as a REPS planner and dairy and drystock advisor in Limerick and Kerry. Most recently he worked as a sustainability adviser on the ASSAP programme.
Geoghegan comes from a beef-farming background in Co Westmeath. He started working for Teagasc as a REPS planner in Crossmolina, Co Mayo, in 2001, then as a drystock adviser, also in Co Mayo. He most recently worked as a climate-change and sustainability advisor, and was based in Teagasc Ballina.
