A survey of 200 women in Ireland and across Europe through the EU Horizon Europe Female-Led Innovation in Agriculture and Rural Areas (FLIARA) project revealed a “staggering ethos” among them that aligned with farm sustainability, Farrell told the crowd gathered for a women in agriculture discussion panel in the European Commission on Tuesday.Producer/Author Caitríona Morrissey Persons Maura Farrell
