The Certified Irish Angus calves are growing!

Last week, the Angus Advocates - Lucy, Ellen, Ciara and Niamh - welcomed Charles Smith, General Manager of Certified Irish Angus to Lucy’s family farm in Barryroe to check the progress of the 5 Irish Angus cattle: Tóirneach, Réalt, Inis, Bua and Ériu. 

They are thriving on a grass based diet and are meeting all targets, currently averaging 570kg. They are on track to be finished by early July. 

Huge thanks to Charles Smith for making the journey to West Cork, to Amanda Nugent, Agri Advisor of Barryroe Co-op for joining us for the visit, and to all at Barryroe Co-op for kindly sponsoring the cattle’s Winter ration.
