'Efficiency' the theme of upcoming Keenan open day

Well-known machinery firm Keenan is set to host an open day on Wednesday, June 20, from 12:00pm until 8:00pm.

The event will take place at Keenan’s production facility in Clonygoose, Borris, Co. Carlow.

Visitors to the event will have the opportunity to meet representatives from companies such as: Moocall; Herdwatch; Grasstec; Maizetech; and Samco.

The event will play host to a beef and dairy seminar, with industry specialists speaking – as well as the Alltech Ireland team, which will focus on “nutritional solutions for improved on-farm results and better return on investment”.

The dairy seminar will feature Cathal Bohane, head of InTouch nutrition, and Eddie Phelan, Alltech’s regional manager for the south-west of Ireland. They will give presentations on maximising forage options on-farm – during the winter-feeding period.

Getting your animals on the grid at a younger age will be the main theme of the beef seminar; both Richard Dudgeon – Alltech’s regional manager for Northern Ireland – and Gerry Giggins – an animal nutritionist – will cover this topic.

Complimentary refreshments will be available on the day.

No pre-booking is required for this event and anyone looking for more information can visit Keenan’s website.
