Despite rumours of a venue relocation by the National Ploughing Association (NPA) for next year’s National Ploughing Championships (the Ploughing), the NPA has announced a return to Laois for 2024.
The Ploughing will again be at Ratheniska from September 17-19, 2024. Even as the event continues to change and develop, its phenomenal success in attracting hundreds of thousands of visitors from rural and urban Ireland, and further afield, bears witness to the efforts of a voluntary organisation working for the betterment of Irish agriculture.
