Common Agricultural Policy and Young Farmers: Engagement with Macra na Feirme

Our guests acknowledged the Minister is trying to resolve the matter of forgotten young farmers. There is some suggestion of various ages and I do not know how many will be involved when it comes down to it. My understanding is that is being resolved under the new CAP proposals. Will the witnesses enlighten us on what talks they have had on that? As for the eco-schemes, do they support the ten measures? In my opinion, it gives some breathing space compared with the five that were there.
