Ireland: Teagasc unveils research updates
Teagasc director Gerry Boyle said: "Our annual research portfolio comprises some 300 research projects, carried out by 500 scientific, technical and support staff in our research centres throughout Ireland. We are committed to transferring the latest discoveries from these research projects to end users to ensure that our research has an impact and delivers a benefit to our stakeholders and the Irish economy.
"We publish technology updates for all completed research projects. These are designed to ensure a more effective transfer of new research information to the advisory and training services and to the end user and to provide an easily accessible record of the main research findings."
Technology updates for food research, the fourth Teagasc programme, were published earlier this year.
Jane Kavanagh, Teagasc’s programme implementation co-coordinator, said: "This collection of technology updates will be of great interest and use to advisers, teachers, farmers, policy makers, scientists, and others interested in agricultural issues."
