Mary Upton (Dublin South Central, Labour)
Is there sufficient input into alternative farm enterprises to encourage farmers who for whatever reason might have given up their previous type of farming and would be looking to some alternatives that would give them the opportunity to stay and earn a viable income on the land? Has the Minister had discussions with the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment on ensuring adequate and appropriate alternative employment in rural areas for part-time farmers?
