Nitrates Derogation and Nitrates Action Programme: Discussion
Mr. Pat McCormack:
The difficulty is if you take 100 cows in 1983 they provided a significant level of income. If you take 100 cows in the late 1990s they provided a significant level of income. However, if you take 100 cows today it is hugely challenging to make a living as the margin has been eroded.
