Why in Ireland is just 8% of agricultural land used for crops, while the rest is devoted to animal production? This podcast with Shane Hanly delves into some of the reasons why the Irish agricultural system has become specialised with animal production. Factors such as membership of the European Union and globalisation of agri-food systems are discussed. A number of spatial justice implications, both in Ireland and abroad, that this dominant agricultural system brings about are highlighted.
