They should either be genotyped or a warning should be given in marts. Farmers do not read small print. They will not read every piece of the paper. They will sign their name and fill in what they have to fill in. That is it. We are leading them to a crash.
Mr. Coughlan might be able to respond to my other question. Is it correct that 75% of suckler cows are based in the west of Ireland, from Donegal down to Clare?
