Common Agricultural Policy: Statements.

 

One other point Senator Henry made to me is the benefit of grass fed beef rather than corn fed beef, because of the benefit of fatty acids. Practically all Irish beef, for the vast part of the year, is grass fed. However, I have been to places in the United States where the animals are fed solely from those feed lots. Clearly, there is an opportunity for us to sell not just on the basis of taste, but also on the basis of health.
