A special section at The Tullamore Show will spotlight the Forest and Energy Sector, its innovations and its key players on Sunday, 14 August 2022. LSL Auctions will be there to broadcast all the action live from the event, allowing remote viewers to get a taste of the festivities.
Forestry will be well represented on the day. It is now recognised as an important mainstream activity on many farms with almost 22,000 forest owners, 83% being farmers. This year, 14 companies and organisations will be on hand to provide information and demonstrations at a dedicated Forest & Energy village.
Companies represented will be drawn from the afforestation, management, harvesting and products sectors. With recent favourable revisions to the Forestry Programme 2014 – 2020, now is a good time for landowners to consider forestry as an attractive and complementary enterprise for suitable areas on their farms.
The Forest and Energy Section will provide an opportunity to have all your forestry queries answered. Timber prices are excellent this year and there is also a strong demand for timber, with many sawmills actively seeking logs, reflecting the industry’s interest in this year’s show.
The Renewable Energy sector will also be very visible with companies from the biomass, renewable heating and energy sectors. Their presence, along with the companies involved in growing trees for fibre and energy use, highlights the interest in sustainable energy utilisation & production.
The Forest & Energy Sector at the show will be located on Rows W & X in the main Trade Area of the Tullamore Showground.
