Irish farmer returns to Ukraine to start sowing season

A Tipperary farmer is returning to Ukraine to start his spring sowing operation on his farm there and to assist with efforts to provide crops and food for the Ukrainian domestic market.

Jonathan Clibborn started farming with his family in Ukraine 15 years ago. They have entered into a long-term lease agreement with landowners in the area and currently farm 10,000 acres.

The land is planted with a variety of crops.

Mr Clibborn, his wife and three children have moved to Tipperary, but he is now returning to Ukraine to oversee the Spring sowing operation on the farm.
