Protest?

I would personally love to see it.

Irish processors (MIL) didn't go gun ho against mercosur why? Why have a meat rep body if you can't attend a key stakeholder meeting? Just goes to show the standing of MIL in the beef industry.

Regarding their poor opposition to mercosur because they wanted a slice of the action. Tesco, Sainsbury's, Asda didn't import beef everthing directly from the above and Australasia but our own irish factories wanted a slice of the action. They jumped into bed with these countries and rode the irish farmer who made them what they are today. Thats the back log irish farmers are facing, its contrived artificially, we are almost 70k already behind last year which was a bumper year in beef farmer production. The figures just dont add up.

They are some, processing significant quantities of that i won't call beef into our main markets The key issue is whats gone on those lables leaving Irish Meat plants to the consumers especially to the UK. British retailers and Irish producers needs answers to these questions in a serious and direct manner as its only fair to these hard working entities.

Bord Bia should be boycotted, whats the point in QA? I know dairy people cant supply milk but if every beef farmer stopped QA in unison, that would send a serious message.

Irish farmers can't take these losses with up to 50c between us and our main markets is a disgrace not to mention the firth quarter which is a good return atm to Asia.

I was in a well known restaurant/pub last Sunday in the SE and im not making this up to emphasise my point. It always had a great name. I ordered the beef and you would need a chainsaw to cut it. I actually felt sick afterwards. I did report it.

Unless those export lables are properly established, explained and bonafided our none Irish produced and irish produced beef exports are questionable.

This is a year where a line in the sand is drawn finally where the barons can from now on rely on their own resources for winter/spring cattle. Sure they will import the sub standard to make up the deficit but that product requires providence.

I've sold finished cattle in livestock marts in the last while were which abieted were aa and hex in the main which were averaging the equivalent of plus 7e a kg, i wouldn't listen to the poor mouth piece of the procurement brain washed.

What’s the goal ??

has the letter sent to government been published??

I couldn’t find it anywhere

Surely not asking people to get behind a set of demands they can’t verify ??

Maybe it’s just me but I see an AI poster like that and it just screams SCAM!
