Best Answer

In the days when there were few good roads and transportation was by farm wagon, it was necessary for poultry farms to be close to cities and towns so that eggs and other poultry products could be delivered quickly while still fresh. It was also more convenient for the poultry farm to be close to town for obtaining the poultry feed. Many present-day poultry farms were established long ago and the farms are still run by the same families.

Where are some farming areas in Ireland?

Large areas of Ireland are agricultural, even close to the cities. So you could say that nearly all of Ireland is a major agricultural area. Different parts of Ireland are more suited to certain types of agriculture. Parts of the area around Tipperary, Kilkenny, Cork and Limerick are very good for growing crops, and it is sometimes referred to as the "Golden Vale". The land is not so good in the west of Ireland and in many of the more mountainous regions, so sheep farming and cattle farming would be strong in those areas. Parts of the east coast are noted for fruit and vegetables. Pig farming is strong in the north midlands and south Ulster.
