A significant auction involving tractors and machinery took place today (Saturday, December 7) close to Dunboyne, Co. Meath.
The auction – conducted by Wilsons Auctions – was on behalf of Kieran Lavelle, who is reportedly selling the equipment “due to a change in the farm’s machinery policy and a decision to focus on dairy farming”.
