The machinery facilities of the College include a comprehensive range of tractors and machines. The College does the bulk of its own machinery operations on the farm, both in grassland and tillage.

The equipment is also needed in our educational programme. The students are involved in helping to maintain the equipment under the supervision of the mechanic and technician.

Our challenge is to keep our equipment updated so that we can maintain our ability to educate and train our students.

Robert Cuffe

Students who opt to complete the machinery modules are given a good basic foundation in the operation and maintenance of the equipment and tractors.

The College also has a fine machinery storage shed and a workshop for both the maintenance programme and the educational programme. Hopefully this helps to inform you of our efforts and work in relation to machinery and that you can continue to support our College in its endeavours to educate young people for a future in farming. Our efforts are an investment in their future.
