The conference, overseen by David Kenny of Teagasc, highlighted the contributions of young researchers toward innovative agricultural solutions. It focused on topics like gene editing and methane-reducing additives, showcasing a blend of research and private enterprise aimed at practical implementation. Prof. Michael Diskin received a lifetime achievement award for his impactful work on fertility, emphasizing the importance of evidence-based practices in farming. The event not only fostered connections among young scientists and the agriculture community but also aimed at translating research into commercial viability for farmers.
Prof Diskin's great work replaced fiction with facts as he systematically identified the key components required to achieve good fertility, such as a rising plane of nutrition and targets like correct body condition score.
Conferences such as this reassure that some of the best and brightest young people are working with us to produce healthy nutritious food while helping us lower our carbon footprint.
