A TOP young farming student from Limerick has been awarded the John Feely Foundation Scholarship.
The accolade was presented to Tommy Ryan, who was accompanied by his brother Michael, along with a cheque for โฌ1,500, by ICMSA president Denis Drennan.
The young Doon scholar was one of four recipients of this yearโs award, in which Mr Drennan said had been a stiff competition with outstanding applicants.
โThe standard weโre seeing in the young people coming through bodes well for the sector: theyโre technically very strong and environmentally aware, theyโre also committed to building on the standards already achieved,โ Mr Drennan said.
