Ireland of course is a great dairy producing country and I'm surprised about Finland because they don't have a lot of arable land (they have a lot of forests) so that is interesting that they are no 1. Finns are very innovative though.

Picture of Ireland below.

Australia is probably like California with a climate to grow an abundance of crops. As far as Ireland, I think they produce great dairy products like most of the British Isles. I often buy cheese (cheddar), butter, and oats imported from Ireland and it's increasingly available in American stores these days.

We don't get Irish produce here not surprisingly but I remember these brands when I was in Ireland. I could most probably get them if I looked in some shop that sells more UK/Irish products.

Kerrygold and Flahavans seem like the most widely available Irish food products here. I wish I had easier access to Tayto

. I bet Australia has a better selection of Irish products on average than America. McCann's is another one I commonly see.
