Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Review of Food Harvest 2020 Strategy: Discussion (Resumed) with Irish Dairy Board and Bord Bia

3:55 pm

Mr. Aidan Cotter:

With the permission of the Chair, may I add that e-clip does portray the importance of family farming in Irish conditions. That is an appealing part of what we offer as a food and drink producer. It shows Irish farmers through the generations. I think it is something, in addition to the clean, green environment, that we must continue to strive to protect. It is the people themselves in the family farm system that completes the real picture that we can sell internationally.
