Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Compliance with the Nitrates Directive and Implications for Ireland: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Anthony Coleman:
I will ask my colleague Ms Hennessy to address the lag issue. On additional catchments, we are working with a number of co-ops, including the Kerry Group in the Castleisland area and in the Maine and Fahaduff catchments. Obviously, that is primarily a dairy area. We have a tillage pilot in the Ballon area in Carlow and looking at areas in Athy. Those are just the start. There will be a number of other areas we will focus on with the co-ops and with Teagasc.
