Farming and Sport. Y'know yourself.

I'll try and explain but am not sure you'll understand because the secret's Just for Men.

Good question? The aul landlords chopped down much of the wild forests centuries ago and intensively farmed the place to feed an 8 million population here and sent the bulk of product abroad. The locals inherited a broken land and divided culture . . . i don't know the details but Tree...

Drunk! But the drink nearly killed you recently, why risk it? Sure anyway the sound of rain is relaxing in of itself, No need to use a rough aul fix for sleeping?

It's not the site that gets it but the actual occasional trolls who ask for it. Are you still out by the airport in a caravan, did you notice the increased rainfall? Noisy on the roof?

No, t'was a different time & place, when there was opportunity. I feel the NW has a been bit bleak in that regard.

No. I'm a qualified Tractor driver too from a time working on the farm as an Estate Maintainer, which included spending one day a week in the local agricultural college facility. 😊

Guess what? . . . . . . . . Minister for Agriculture Charlie McConalogue said it was a really challenging and unprecedented time for farmers in relation to “the length of this winter” which was “likely to continue for a while yet”😓 Rain is likely for the next 10 days or so, Met...

Keeping it real, good on you CC. Since the 1940s, scientists have studied ways to increase rainfall with the goal of increasing precipitation in arid and semi-arid climates. Today, that endeavor is making incredible leaps and bounds as scientists and engineers apply nanotechnology to improve...

. I remember it well. those were the days when we actually could get sunburned out in the sun, not so in recent times. What a joke today's Irish summers are in comparison. These days, the sun blocker is sprayed on, and you wouldn't even notice.

Irish Farmers' Association's National Potato chairperson Sean Ryan has said there is a likelihood of potato shortages in supermarkets later in the year as less than 50 acres of the usual 21,000 acres have actually been planted so far. Mr Ryan's comments came as Met Éireann's farming forecast...

Talking of POV, one will find plenty of data in the newspapers in regard to soggy agriculture over the last 10 years with plenty wet record breakers like last year which was a disastrously crap summer cold, cloudy, wet and dim. Also the year before '22 had rain all through the summer but with a...

Sure I guess we can add that to a list of weather disrupters, perhaps we may see a dry period too, after all El Nino also brings droughts through it's nature.🤓

There's was too much last year and now the same's happening again for '24 . . . There will be no relief from rain and sodden ground for farmers in the coming days, as according to Met Éireann's farming forecast, rainfall amounts will be two to four times the normal range. In its farming...
