Mr. Rushe stated:
The farm-gate value of the horticulture sector is currently valued at €529 million. The national strategy for horticulture anticipates that the farm-gate value of the sector will increase by 30% to €688 million, if the necessary actions in the report are implemented.
Can the witnesses see that happening? If the necessary actions are not implemented, where do they see the sector going?
