The Irish Farmers Journal is a weekly agricultural newspaper (published Thursdays) which provides farming news, specialist advice, market data and country living features to the Irish agricultural industry. As of October 2019, it reportedly had a weekly readership of 263,000.^[1] It is the largest selling agricultural publication in both Ireland and the UK,^{[citation needed]} and it had a weekly circulation sale of 62,226 copies at the end of 2018.^[2]

It is owned by The Agricultural Trust, which also owns The Irish Field.^[3] The Irish Farmers Journal is the only agricultural publication which operates as a legal Trust.^{[citation needed]}

Its ownership structure provides it with the ability to make significant investments in editorial content.^{[citation needed]} An example of this is Tullamore Farm,^[4] a model farm designed to test farming practices to improve efficiency.^{[original research?]}
