    Hi, bellhillbarns.
    I would suggest that you add a location of where and what type of farming that you are interested in perusing.
    Also what experience you have, if any to date, be it beef, tillage/grain or dairy/sheep.

    Thanks base price, I'm located in county Louth and would be willing to travel to Meath, Monaghan or Cavan . Or further depending on job offer. I'm come from a tillage and suckler family farm. I have worked on two dairy farms previously in county Louth and France. I have good tractor experience . Also have experience with sheep and horses.

    As a graduate would more so recommend getting on a plane and see how they do it so where else for a year or two rather than same old thing?
