Agriculture in Northern Ireland
Grassland dominates the landscape, supporting dairy herds and suckler and finishing beef across counties such as Tyrone, Fermanagh, Down and Antrim. Poultry is a major enterprise too, with many family farms running broiler or layer houses that supply large processors.
County Armagh is famous for its Bramley apple orchards, and the province also has a substantial food and drink processing sector. Together these businesses need stockpeople, unit managers, technical staff and sales advisers.
