One hundred years of agriculture education was marked by Taoiseach Micheál Martin at Government Buildings recently during a special commemorative event with University College Dublin (UCD) and University College Cork (UCC). The event was to mark the centenary of legislation that established the Faculty of Agriculture at UCD and the Faculty of Dairy Science at UCC. Senior representatives from Government, higher education, research, industry and the wider agri-food sector gathered to celebrate the contribution of both institutions to the development of Irish agriculture. Pictured with Micheál Martin were UCD president, Orla Feely and UCC professor, Sarah Culloty with UCD students Jenin Zaru, Shane Maher, Rachel O’Reilly and UCC students Bo Zhang, Megan McTernan and Lucas Janowski.
