Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine
Future of the Beef Sector: Discussion (Resumed)
Mr. Hugh Doyle:
I did not mention it because I discussed branding when answering an earlier question. With regard to the environment and sustainability, as far as the Beef Plan Movement is concerned, in the next year to 18 months, every farm in Ireland will have a carbon quota. It is coming from the environmentalists in Brussels. We have to be aware as beef farmers that the environment will be significant.
