Herdwatch Ploughing ahead with new innovation and market

Written by herdwatch | 19-Sep-2016 22:36:12

Update: Herdwatch Sales Ring has just been awarded the Silver Medal in the Innovation Arena's Agri-technology competition for established companies! Needless to say we are delighted and hope to take Sales Ring to the next stage of the development process soon. Thanks to Enterprise Ireland and Farmers Journal, in particular Denis Duggan. We wish him well in his new role as Macra Na Feirme CEO.

 

It's that time of the year again, when nearly 300,000 people, including many of the country's farming community, converge to the Ploughing Championships.

It's a fantastic display of all things Irish, rural, and of course agricultural. This year in Tullamore will be no different, and Herdwatch will be there in force with over 10 team members, including our famous mascot #Herdie, across 2 locations. We will offer free demos, special offers, and even a cup of tea or coffee!

This year is extra special as we are bringing our newest concept "Herdwatch Sales Ring" to the Innovation Arena where we will be for the 3rd year in a row! Also in our news, an upcoming UK launch within weeks, and a Royal visit to Buckingham Palace to meet Prince Philip and receive our first major International Award.

So come on over and meet the team behind the No. 1 farming app in Ireland on these stands:

FRS / Herdwatch Stand: Block 2, Row 18, Stand 409
