Hay Harvest Farm manager Joe Holohan also overseas the annual hay harvest, with approximately 100,000 small square bales saved each year. “For the past two seasons with COVID-19 measures in place, we made large squares as well as small squares to help reduce the number of people on farm,” Holohan said. “In previous years, we found it hard to dry the big squares, but last year, as a result of necessity, we perfected it with our drier system.” Niall Hurson, Irish Farmers’ Journal, 23 July 2021
