IFA urges the authorities to take action on factories and cattle prices
IFA President Joe Healy
repeated his call on Minister Creed to call in the factories and tell them bluntly to stop cutting the cattle price. “It’s time the Minister demonstrated he is on the farmers side.” He said the Minister has undertaken a lot of work on market access but it’s not giving a return back to farmers.
Joe Healy said the meat factories have taken advantage of their suppliers during the severe drought conditions. He said the factories have cuts cattle prices unnecessarily over recent weeks destabilising the beef market and eroding confidence in the sector. He said “beef farmers feel very let down by the factories”.
