Lakeland Dairies Agribusiness division has delivered a 3-step Soil Improvement Programme, in partnership with Devenish and Thomson & Joseph. This project was delivered by working with three monitor dairy farms in Cavan, Monaghan and Westmeath over the past four years.
Jimmy and Catherine Maloney purchase all their animal feeds from Lakeland Dairies, and their farm is one of several monitor farms across the Lakeland Dairies catchment area that embarked on a soil improvement programme in 2013 as part of the Lakeland RumiSmart Sustain fully integrated nutrition system.
Charles Smith, who heads up the Angus Beef Producers’ Group started feeding Lakeland’s Gold Finisher 30 to his finishing cattle last August and is extremely happy with the results achieved.
Monaghan dairy farmer, Eugene McMahon was very appreciative of the work carried out by Lakeland Dairies in an effort to provide a solution to a huge problem he was having with milk fevers and retained cleanings.
Dairy farmer Clifford Cranston runs a very successful heifer rearing programme on his farm in Mullagh, Co. Cavan with the support of Lakeland Dairies Agribusiness.
