Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Horticultural Peat Supply and Willow Scheme: Bord na Móna

Mr. Ger Breen:

There is probably a requirement of about 60,000 cubes, which is about 15,000 to 18,000 tonnes. It is slightly harvested and it might be just over 15%. As we know, the growing season is upon us now, so it is important that the facility is up and running as soon as possible. The initial 2,000 tonnes will get product produced and made available to Irish growers.
