Last chance to #saveoursucklers and protect Ireland’s local economy! Sign the Irish Farmers Journal’s online petition now at www.farmersjournal.ie/sos. By signing the letter, you are calling on the EU Commission and the Irish Government to commit to protecting our EU beef markets in ongoing trade deals, protect the CAP budget and deliver on IFA demands for a €200/cow payment. An Irish Farmers Journal investigation identified a €177/hd drop in support for suckler cows over the last decade as a factor in the decline of cow numbers. Every €1 of support provided to suckler farmers generated over €4 of economic activity in rural towns and villages. Closing date for submissions 30 March 2018.
