The witnesses are right about the colleges and being in for the longer haul and that is good to see for young farmers. Thankfully, a lot of young farmers are doing the green cert. I know a few places that are booked out for another while and it is good that they are doing it.
What is Mr. McCormack's vision going forward for the family farm as against the bigger farm in the context of derogation and all of these figures? What needs to be done to keep the family farm viable?
