The analysis some farmers have carried out indicates that this section will put an additional cost of up to €30,000 on them as a result of what is being done here and raises the complexity of what farms will be asked to do, particularly mixed farms, in dividing their operations, whether they want to charge the flat-rate addition on other parts of their farm income, and the fact that 95% of poultry farmers are mixed farms and mixed enterprises.
