In this episode of AgriFocus Francess McDonnell is joined by Ann Griffin, regional advocate for the north-west with Sage Advocacy – which is the National Advocacy Service for Older People – to chat about what happens to the family farm if an older person needs to consider nursing home care.
Ann addresses common concerns among older farmers and their families who fear losing the farm if they enter the scheme. She explains how the HSE assesses income and assets – such as homes, land, and farms – and clarifies the 3-year cap that limits how much can be charged against these assets.

In the second episode of Agriland's latest limited podcast series 'The Dairy Trail', technical dairy journalist, Hugh Harney takes a trip to Larry Hannon's dairy farm in Ballitore, Co. Kildare.
Larry Hannon has 235 cows to calve down this spring and has over 70% of the herd calved. The aim is to have 220 cows milking strong at the peak of the lactation.
The focus on the farm is to get the cows out to grass for a few hours every day and to maximise the cow's dry matter intake in the early lactation.
In the episode, Larry explains how he has been managing his calving season from colostrum feeding to the dietary requirements of the cow.
Larry goes through how he went from having about 20% of his herd calving down in the autumn and filling his winter milk contract, to going to a fully spring-calving herd.
