The Dealer hears that Teagasc is planning a 1916 commemorative farming event which will be held over two days next June at Mellows Agricultural, Athenry, Co Galway.
The Dealer hears that Teagasc has allocated a significant budget to the event with Michael Diskin.
It is understood that Teagasc director Prof Gerry Boyle is under direct instructions from An Taoiseach Enda Kenny to organise the event, with the western location hugely important given the connection between the 1916 Easter Rising independence fighter Liam Mellows and the Athenry college, which has been in existence since 1914, two years before the insurrection.
