    All lamb and beef/dairy in Ireland is grass fed. Mainly because grass is irelands main crop and it is therefore economical to produce lamb/beef this way.

    Grass fed : out on pasture 6-8 mths a year and during winter, in sheds fed on silage/haylage with some grain.

    We are very lucky here for that reason.
