I read the same thing and I emphasise that farmers are protesting today because they have being ignored since the strike ended. Can the Minister for Agriculture, Food and the Marine to set up this task force as soon as possible? I know he had a hiccup the first time it tried to get going. Now he needs to emphasise that this needs to set up as soon as possible. The price of beef is still on the ground, with €3.45 being quoted this week. Farmers will go to the wall unless something is done about it. All elements of farming need to be recognised because one will not get them all on board unless they are all recognised.
