Last night.

Athgarvan grain mill, Athgarvan, Co Kildare.

A tractor adds to the mound of Winter barley being deposited in the Athgarvan Grain Mill. It has been such a poor Summer that those farmers engaged in the cereal area of agriculture, are probably going to have great difficulty bringing in later crops

      I believe we were expecting this anyway, what with the big budgetary giveaway due in October

    Ah, the whingeing farmers are late this year. If it’s not too wet, it’s too dry. Never bloody happy (or willing to accept we live in the climate we do).

      We should be come a nation of moisture farmers (like on Tatooine), and export that commodity

    The havest started last Saturday with some excellent yields so far (stupid rain) so this story is running well behind.
