Ms Cleona O'Shea:

If the greenway comes through my land, my land will be cut completely in half. I will have 750 m of greenway right through the middle of my farm. I will have 50 acres locked between the River Blackwater and the greenway and 70 acres on the other side. In our system, we do all our own work. We have our own gear. We raise beef and do tillage and there are two of us. The 50 acres by the river is silage ground because it is too wet for grazing early in the year. With two of us doing silage, that will be a week's work going over the greenway and back every day. We just cannot do it. We cannot work.
