Equine Innovation Day at CAFRE Enniskillen Campus
Date published:
The College of Agriculture, Food and Rural Enterprise (CAFRE) will host an Equine Innovation Day at Enniskillen Campus on Tuesday 16 October.
The event will showcase new technologies and innovations in the equine industry from a range of different businesses and organisations. Student and staff projects which have been carried out at the Campus breeding, racing and equitation yards will be on display. Practices that are supported by scientific evidence are the foundation of a professional industry and the key to driving the sector forwards.
The Equine Innovation Day will showcase the utilisation of innovative technologies, services and practices in the care, management, production and performance of horses. Adoption of innovation is key to improving the health, welfare and performance of horses, increasing profitability and efficiency of equestrian businesses, and promoting a sustainable environment.
The day will include a number of stands from innovative businesses as well as two talks and a range of practical demonstrations showing a range of technologies.
The day will start at 11:30am and will have talks and demonstrations throughout the day.
