A Look Back At The National Ploughing Championships 2019

Hundreds of thousands of people descended on Co. Carlow for the three days of the National Ploughing Championships last week.

Also at the Ploughing, and on this week’s Farm Focus, was Nick Swallow who is New Zealand’s Trade Commissioner to London.
