We are pleased to be offering our Stud Farm Hygiene Package to breeders for the 2026 season. This scheme has proven very popular with Thoroughbred breeders over the last number of years. The aim of the scheme is to help in the prevention of enteric and respiratory disease in young foals and to minimise environmental impacts on fertility for the coming season. The scheme provides information on the hygiene status and pathogen burden of key communal areas of your establishment as well as assessing water quality and an in-depth forage analysis comprised of hygiene check, zearalenone screen, nutritional analysis and mineral analysis.

This package is heavily discounted and we are delighted to be working with again to provide this package at a further discounted rate to ITBA members.

Contact us with any questions you may have.

Supporting the Future of Irish Horse Breeding: Teagasc and the Agricultural Consortium’s apprenticeship model has transformed agricultural education since 2023—and now it’s coming to the equine sector. A proposed Level 7 Stud Manager Apprenticeship will combine hands-on experience with formal education to develop the next generation of leaders across the thoroughbred and sport horse industries. Before moving forward, we’re seeking industry insights to ensure the programme meets real workforce needs.

📢 Have your say: The Stud Manager Apprenticeship Survey 2025 takes just 6 minutes and is fully anonymous.

Veterinarians are champions in the fight against Antimicrobial Resistance. From clinics to farms, vets are changing behaviours—educating clients, improving hygiene, and ensuring antimicrobials are used only when truly needed.
AMR is already here. The time to act is now.

AMR connects us all – humans, animals, and the environment.
Every antibiotic used in animals or humans impacts the bigger picture. Through good hygiene, vaccination, and biosecurity, vets reduce infections and minimise the need for antibiotics, we work together with our vet colleagues to provide accredited quality testing.
Let’s and through united action.
Prevention is protection. Every step counts.

🐴 Important Update for Vets & Horse Owners 🧪
New regulations on equine wormers are coming into effect from December, 2025. From this date, all anti-parasitic treatments will require a veterinary prescription, aligning Ireland with EU standards to combat resistance and promote responsible medicine use.
This shift highlights the critical importance of diagnostic-led parasite control — and that’s where we come in.
