Thomas is heading up the agronomy team, which works in partnership with grain growers throughout the southeast, supplying all inputs and agronomy services to support the intake of 75,000 tonnes of native crops. These crops are the key ingredients for Brett’s animal feeds and Flahavan’s porridge oats.
Welcoming Thomas to Bretts, CEO Liam Brett said: “Thomas is the perfect fit to manage our complete agronomy programme which is geared to provide the most up-to-date technology, in a sustainable manner, to all growers who are an integral part of our business. We have made native cereals the main ingredients in our quality rations and are proud of our closed loop seed-to-fork strategy.” Thomas, who is originally from Knocktopher, Co. Kilkenny, previously worked with Tirlán for 10 years and is a graduate of agricultural science from University College Dublin.
