A ST Brendan’s Park woman collected a national award last night for her work on Radio Kerry’s agricultural show, Agritime.
Aisling O’Brien, who presents the show, collected the Best Radio Programme or Story category award in the 2016 Agricultural Journalism Awards last night.

The show was among three finalists in the category and won for its coverage of the South Kerry Greenway project. And that wasn’t the end of the awards for Kerry.
Photographer Valerie O’Sullivan from Killarney who was shortlisted for the Best Photograph section also won top prize for her photo, ‘One Girl And Her Dog’. Well done to both women on their awards.
The bi-annual awards, which took place at a black-tie dinner at the Castleknock Hotel and Spa, are organised by the Guild of Agricultural Journalists and are supported by FBD.
