    Plenty of dairy farmers are making a lot of money , would they not give their worker a reasonable rate of 15 Euro an hour and hold onto them than paying minimum wage ??

    Plenty lads are paying over and above it, particularly depending on roles and responsibilities. It still takes a certain scale and profitability to pay a person fulltime.

    I reckon if i was dairy farming and looked for a worker in the morning,paying €10 a hour i,de have me pick of lads and maybe lassies.

    It's the way things are for now anyway. Our countries full of youth,keen to work and maybe learn something too.

    Maybe our region is lucky in that. Look at the marts. They have plenty of help,mainly young help,and thats only odd days a week

    I doubt the marts are paying much more than €10 ahour

    Marts employ mostly farmers who want 2-3 day part-time works week. Ya it minimum wage but that is totally different to working full-time for a dairy farmer 40-50 hours a week.
