FARMER AMBASSADOR

Olivia Gunn

One of our young ambassadors, Olivia, farms with her parents, grandparents and three siblings on a dairy farm in Co Roscommon. She’s been farming since she could walk, when she started getting out with the cows and bringing them in for milking.
Olivia can often be seen on her mum’s social media channels sorting out her cows, building stuff, repairing things and generally bringing a hands-on approach to the business of dairying.

Miriam, farmer and mum of four, believes that Women in Dairy is about recognition – her grandmother worked on the farm but would never have considered herself a farmer. “It’s about women standing up and saying, hold on, we’re doing this too, and being acknowledged for it.” She’s also keen to see country kids being encouraged to participate in dairying and to be proud to be part of it.

“The cow is in charge of everything she does – she has to come to the robot, it’s a simple as that.” Niall talks about his move to the robotic milking system, better for him, better for his family who work with him but, above all, better for the cow. The robotic system monitors cow health and milk quality, and enables Niall to manage his pastures to ensure the best grass for his animals.
