The future is bright for farmers with management skills.

Farm managers will play a big role in the Food Harvest 2020 plan to boost Irish agri-food exports by 42%. Graduates of the Farm Apprenticeship Scheme set up the association in 1979, and its members include some of the country’s most successful farmers. As an association we are involved with the education of future farmers and farm managers through the promotion of education in the farming sector. One example of this is the Teagasc Professional Diploma in Dairy Farm Management which is run by Teagasc, Moorepark and co-ordinated by Marion Beecher. Details on the course can be found on the Teagasc Website. www.teagasc.ie
