JOHNSTOWN DAIRY FARM LIMITED

Overview

Johnstown Dairy Farm Limited is a farming entity operating in Ireland, associated with Teagasc, the Irish agricultural research and advisory body. The company manages a 70-hectare farm established in 2003, currently milking 140 cows, with 90–95 of them calved in autumn for winter milk production. The herd produces an average of 600kg of milk solids annually, with an economic breeding index of €165, and yields around 7,500kg of milk per year, containing 3.66% protein and 4.52% fat. The autumn calving season runs from mid-September to early December, with an average calving interval of 370 days and a six-week calving rate of just under 80%. The farm focuses on optimizing milk solids through breeding and feeding, using 1.6 tonnes of concentrate annually, including 1 tonne during housing. Performance has declined since 2022 due to adverse weather and droughts. The farm serves as Teagasc's primary research centre for winter milk production. Beyond registry-level identification, no further business details are publicly captured.
