PICTURES: Tipperary students attend prestigious competition finals in Dublin

Students from Tipperary recently exhibited projected at the recent Certified Irish Angus Schools' Competition, which took place in Croke Park recently. 

The competition, run in association with processor partners ABP and Kepak, challenges students to rear five Irish Angus calves and learn about the care and attention required to produce quality beef for consumers.

Five schools that best demonstrate an understanding of the project along with innovative ideas will be presented with Irish Angus calves at the National Ploughing Championships in September this year.
