Product Description
Rooted in the rich soil of Ireland’s heartland, Farming in the Midlands offers
a vivid, multi-layered portrait of rural life across generations. From the
challenges of smallholders to the innovations of niche producers, this
compelling collection of stories, interviews, and reflections reveals the
resilience, complexity, and quiet transformation of Irish agriculture.
Spanning themes from women in farming and rural village change to
environmental sustainability and the role of the IFA, the book gives voice to
those who work the land—both seasoned farmers and newcomers returning
from abroad. Whether it's coping with flooding, adapting to new
technologies, or preserving traditions, Farming in the Midlands captures the
everyday realities and enduring spirit of Irish farm life in the 20th and 21st
centuries.
