Back In Focus: A brand new 5-bay slatted unit with a lie-back area and crush in Co. Cork
Looking back to just before the first Covid-19 lockdown, we revisit a five-bay slatted unit on the farm of Denis O’Mahony – a beef and sheep farmer – from Bantry, Co. Cork, as part of our ‘Back In Focus’ series.
Farming alongside his father, Denis works full-time off-farm; however, the plan is to go full-time farming in the future.
The duo have been renting two sheds over the last few years, to accommodate their herd of 60 suckler cows and their flock of 200 ewes.
