Field work is at a standstill on Gareth Culligan's farm outside Stabannon, Co Louth. However, there was a good spell of weather before this, which allowed Gareth to get on top of fertiliser and spraying.

33% of Gareth's spring beans were sown before conditions deteriorated, and he is waiting for ground conditions to improve before he heads back out with the drill.
