Hectic week getting two new nutrition trials up and running, with the heavy rainfall over the long weekend not helping! Very lucky, however, to have excellent staff, cows and resources #MilkFat #PASTURE-NUE Teagasc

Dairy Research and Innovation, as well as latest updates from the Dairy Systems Herd UCD Lyons Farm and the new Dept of Agriculture, Food and the Marine funded #PASTURE-NUE project highlighted to Charlie McConalogue by Karina Pierce Finbar Mulligan Zoe McKay UCD Research UCD School of Veterinary Medicine UCD Systems Herd

The first experiment of PASTURE-NUE complete! Hard few weeks but we got there. Very blessed with our team (+ Eoin E missing from the pic). Time to catch up on a few winks 😴

Great to welcome Mike Dineen to lyons today. A collaborator on the PASTURE-NUE project investigating the use of plantain in grazing swards to reduce nitrogen excretion. 🐄🌱☘️UCD School Ag & Food

It’s been a pleasure coordinating and delivering the Animal Nutrition II module for the UCC Ireland Ag Science degree. Back in October we brought the 4th years down to see one of our #PASTURE-NUE experiments Teagasc Biological, Earth & Environmental Sciences, UCC Dept of Agriculture, Food and the Marine (1/2)

A day of two halves for the milk train. Had to be very gentle grazing our #PASTURE-NUE reseed but we got there 🐄💪

A new twitter account PASTURE_NUE is now live to share details of a new project investigating nitrogen use efficiency in pasture based dairy production systems. Give a follow to hear progress on the work including from UCD Lyons Farm from Cian Minogue Zoe McKay and Tommy Boland

Some of our plantain containing swards established as part of PASTURE_NUE UCD Lyons Farm are looking good in the 🌞 today Zoe McKay Cian Minogue Mike Dineen

It was a pleasure visiting the 'farming club' and 6th year Ag Science class of the Skibbereen community school. Boy they kept me on my toes. The future is bright for the Ag industry! #PASTURE_NUE #ScienceCommunication #Future #WestCork skibbereencommunityschool.ie/school-news/20…

Michael Dineen spoke at the Teagasc Dairy Conference 2022 about increasing milk production efficiency from pasture-based diets. bit.ly/3BqQApN

The beautiful sunshine over the last few days brings back great memories from last summer performing an experiment for the #PASTURE-NUE project

Experiment update: Low Crude Protein concentrate trial at the Dairygold Farm, Kilworth. An experiment is on-going comparing cows receiving concentrate with differing levels of CP (8-15% CP). All cows receive 3 kg of concentrate/day.

Great to present at CEM Corporation Irish Food Research Conference today. "Application of metabolomics to assess milk quality and traceability" with an overview of research we are doing UCC School of Food and Nutritional Sciences & an introduction to our Dept of Agriculture, Food and the Marine funded projects #MetaBoBainne & PASTURE_NUE

Red-clover silage trial at the Dairygold Farm, Kilworth. The cows finished the experimental period on which they were receiving 7 kg DM of either grass silage or grass-red clover silage at night and fresh grass during the day, with 4 kg of concentrate in the milking parlour.

Eoin will be presenting his research in the Grassland Village at #Moorepark23 🐄 PastureBase Ireland Teagasc

An excellent afternoon with Glenn Judson discussing the ongoing research UCD Lyons Farm and our work with plantain as part of the PASTURE_NUE project.
