Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Beef and Livestock Sector: Discussion
4:05 pm
Mr. Joe Burke:
Obviously, Bord Bia is mindful of and sympathetic to the issues farmers are facing at present. Mr. Cotter has described the difficult issues that are being faced by the producers of young bull beef, in particular, in the marketplace. Is it possible that the producer described by the Deputy has bulls that have exceeded a 24-month age limit, rather than a 16-month limit?
