Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Environmental Impact of Local Emissions: Discussion

Mr. Dan Brennan:

On the feeding trial, the only thing I can say is as follows. While Pat Kelliher was the boss in the laboratory in Kilkenny, there was absolutely no problem whatsoever. He was a real, decent man. Pat Kelliher got moved and then all I was met with every day was, "You are a bad farmer and it is your disease management." Even a senior research officer came from Abbottstown and he told me one of our sheds was too long, one was too wide and one was too high.
