    100% They will cream off the grant money. No need for them to know it's a grant job at all, but make sure the job is done to grant spec. Have a good look at the spec documents on the dept website

    I lodged a fencing application in feb. It’s still at local office under RASS since mid may. Very frustrating

    Ring your local AES office. There contact details should be on the approval letter.

    I had a previous Tams application waiting for approval for ages. It was pre covid so I called into office and got speaking with someone and the following week got the approval letter. If you do telephone them make sure to get the name of who you are dealing with.

    Just see on line that my application was not selected. Well feck it anyway. Don’t know why I wasn’t selected. Qualify as young farmer.
    May wait for the letter .
    I had fencing it at the bench mark rate €5.84 for sheep wire and one strand on barb wire. Surely there is no point in going below the rate is there as that’s what frs etc are charging.

    The further below the rate you go, the better chance you have of qualifying, iirc.

    I heard it’s getting very hard to get an application approved. The money is running out it seems.

    Did I read correctly that TAMS is finished this year? I had assumed it was an ongoing thing? I’m eligible for the 60% grant and was planning to build a shed and some roadways in the next few years.

    Is there talk of the next set of grants after? Madness really how the 60% grant is still being heavily promoted even to those only doing the green cert now yet won’t be available when they finish.

    Had you many metres on the application if you don't mind me asking? Theres been a lot of rejections from that tranche on not making the minimum scoring points. Looking like the TAMS money pot might be nearly dry!

    Not in a position to do it at the moment, I was planning this for 2 - 3 years time.

    I'm still waiting on approval. Hoping to get the green light by the end of the month.

    Are applications still open for this till the end of the year?

    Looking a a few bits. Assume all can go on one application. Mixed bag like

    Calf dehorning crate
    Leg scoop
    Meal bin
    Maybe fence old slurry pit.

    Do you have to get quotations for the work first?

    Best off getting agri advisor to prepare?

    Better of waiting till next year and see what the next scheme brings?

    I was thinking of putting in 4 new gang slats, do they qualify?
    Also a new crush?
