Irish Organic Association Field Talk Events

IOA runs a Field Talk programme each year to offer an opportunity for farmers to come together and discuss a variety of technical aspects of organic production. These are held on farms located around the country.

This year we are running 5 Field Talk events each with a specific focus.

It is essential to pre-book your place at the events in order to facilitate everyone, so please call the IOA office on tel 0906 433680 or email [email protected] or [email protected] stating which event you would like to book in for.
