Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Compliance with the Nitrates Directive and Implications for Ireland: Discussion (Resumed)

Mr. Breian Carroll:

The Deputy asked about the tools. We have a request that the tools being used by public service advisers also be provided to us so we can bring them to farmers. Our members paid for the nutrient management planning, NMP, system in the past. We were the only party that was involved who paid for it. I understand there is a cost to all this, but perhaps the State could step in as this is an important tool to give to every adviser who goes out to farmers.
