Challenges Facing the Tillage Industry: Discussion

2:00 am

Dr. Barry O'Reilly:

Under the TAMS tillage capital investment scheme, there are specific categories of support, one of which is for grain storage and treatment. That scheme covers that. There is an investment ceiling of €90,000 for the tillage capital investment scheme and a grant rate of 40%. It is a very popular scheme. To date, under TAMS 3, €8.5 million has been paid out under the tillage capital investment scheme. That does not include support for tillage equipment under other schemes like the young farmer and organic schemes.
