I get out of the wellies the odd time! Great day at the @UCD_CHAS Symposium presenting a poster on methane work I carried out with the help of the @ucdlyonsfarm team & @TeagascSheep last year. Lovely to see and hear about other research being completed in UCD also👩🏼🔬👩🏼🌾
Lots of fantastic @ucdagfood Researchers at the @UCD_CHAS Research Symposium today! A wonderful opportunity for Graduate students across the college to interact and present their work & showcase their excellent research.
Best of luck to Rachel, Shane, Cian and Lais

Drawing to a close of our first (very wet) week measuring N20 emissions from the @Multi4More plots @TeagascEnviron
@Johnfinn310 @SnikeLovesYou
⭐️ Attempting to model emission factors from MSS and PRGWC swards 💉💉
Big thanks to @SnikeLovesYou + interns at JC + PhD students @seandenogla &@RachieConnolly at
UCD Lyons Farm + Danielle Varley at AFBI, for their work on this project! @PallasTb @lyBRIDGET @HelenBSheridan @OlafUCD @SuzanneHigginsM
@CarolineBrophy5 @shobaker @Zoe_C_McKay – at Wexford, Ireland
After a very wet spring, harvesting of our Multi4More field experiment is finally underway! 😊
Investigating combined effects of plant diversity and nitrogen fertiliser level (0 to 150 kg N) on agronomic production, nitrous oxide emissions and more…
