Country Life presented by Keith Fahy discusses the issues and concerns of the rural and agricultural community of County Galway.

Farming in Ireland is undergoing a quiet revolution. Country Life delivers a diversity of views and opinions on the future of Irish farming and agriculture: climate change, EU policies and the need to adapt to survive all present huge challenges for Galway farmers right now.

On this week's show, Keith spoke to Sinead Devaney, Teagasc, about specializing in water, Maura Langan, Norbrook, about the recent explosion in fly numbers, and Amy Forde,  Irish Farmers Journal, about the department as it prepares for an outbreak of Bluetongue. Keith also covered community news and mart reports.

Each episode is a voice for the workers, farmers, food producers, fishermen, and all those working in this widespread community along with their representative organisations and industry journalists.
