From hospital wards to dairy yards

In the latest episode of Agriland's Groundbreakers series, we hear why a Co. Meath dairy farmer left nursing for dairy farming – and never looked back. 

This time around we hear from Laura Hannon who is dairy farming in partnership with her parents and grandmother near Derrypatrick, Drumree, Co. Meath.

The 'Groundbreakers' series, which is proudly supported by FBD, is highlighting the important role of women in farming in Ireland.

What is Groundbreakers?

Agriland's 'Groundbreakers' series, proudly supported by FBD, will highlight the important role of women in farming.
This is especially important as 2026 has been declared the International Year of the Woman Farmer by the United Nations.

Over the course of the coming weeks, Agriland will travel across the country speaking to inspiring women in the sector.
