Nicola also chats to Dr Adam Mellor from AFBI about a new research vessel that will be heading to Lough Neagh to carry out many years of research into what is happening in the waters there. Andrew Patton, from the Northern Ireland Holstein Young Breeders Club, celebrates a special win for the organisation at the Northern Ireland Farming Awards and Jason Rankin from Agrisearch provides the vital 2024 round up for grass growth in all six counties.
