Really simple. It rains a lot in Ireland, but it is prtected from the Atlantic by the Gulf Stream, which is a wide belt of warm ocean water that goes up the coast of Ireland. Mild winters and plenty of rain makes for really good grass-growing seasons, and they have plenty of pastureland that is indeed, emerald green
