    Any views on the framework announced in the Journal this week.

    Its so far away and there are so many negotations to go through is it a case of now we know what to rule out?

    The only sense I can make of it is that the budget for Ireland is only going to be cut by 4/5% between now and 2019.

    So, same cake just bigger or smaller slices!!.....:confused:

    I wonder what's in store under the 'green' payments. If I commit to it, say in 2015 and markets really take off could I opt out etc?

    It looks like the ppl with the big payments are going to lose out, which I think is fair, what farmer, in all fairness, deserves an income support of >300,000e?

    If the seat's wet, sit on yer hat, a cool head is better than a wet ar5e.

    too true, but its the big guys who will be at the negotiating table in the heel of the hunt and I bet you they will look after themselves all right.

    This green payment sounds like a replacement for reps/aeos. they will have you they want you. if you opt out you will probably lose the entire payment.

    The greening option is just that. An option. However it may sync in well with farmers opting to join AEOS so the SFP + AEOS may be compatible AND worthwhile for us to join
