🇮🇪 Old skills meet new technology at Ireland's ploughing championships Among the roar of tractors and clip-clop of horses, precision, tradition and technology meet in rural Ireland's biggest annual gathering: the National Ploughing Championships, where horse-drawn ploughs and GPS-guided machinery offer contrasting visions of farming’s past and future.

At the National #Ploughing Championships @NPAIE we asked people to vote in the #GreatBovineBallot to choose Ireland's favourite breed of cow. Our goal was to show people how to fill in their PR-STV ballots correctly. Today we're counting those votes - results as we progress.
