Irish dairy farmers have run up a record superlevy bill for the last year of the quota system, and the full details of who is going to pay what – and when – have emerged in the past few days. Irish Farmers Journal journalist Amy Fitzgibbons asks dairy editor Jack Kennedy for the latest.
For a different view on dairy expansion, agribusiness editor Eoin Lowry then talks to feed manufacturer Jimmy Brett.
Meanwhile, pig prices have recently picked up after a difficult year. So how are pig farmers doing at the moment - especially in Northern Ireland? Thomas Hubert asked Ulster Farmers’ Union vice-president Ivor Ferguson.
And Mary Phelan tells Amy Fitzgibbon of her experience interviewing Ivan Yates for the cover story of Irish Country Living this week. A fascinating character by the sound of it!
