Was in the pub the other night and one of the lads said he heard there is a €3,000 a farmer grant coming in for suckler farmers to help stem the tide of farmers leaving the sector. Now this lad generally has his facts fairly good. Or could this just be some election candidate making promises on the door step.

Genotyped animals must be born before 30 June 2019 to be eligible. Not hitting the target would mean no payment would issue to participants for the 2020 scheme year and a further 40% fine would be recouped from other schemes like the BPS or ANC scheme.
