Projects to receive funding include carbon capture, low-emissions dairy production and optimising oat production
Ireland’s agricultural R&D minister has pledged €22 million to 21 new research projects, focusing on areas including carbon capture and low emissions in dairy production, as part of his department’s Thematic Research call.
Combined with the first tranche of projects announced last year, the overall funding is €46m—the largest amount committed by the department for a research call.
