Ireland drought to affect animal feed industry

An ongoing drought in Northern Ireland will affect the country's animal feed industry if conditions persist, according to reports.
The information comes on the heels of reports that the UK barley harvest is set to be the worst in 40 years due to lack of rainfall.
