Deer farms in Ireland are concerned with the breeding, rearing and finishing of deer for the production of venison. I understand that the particular establishment at Green Park, County Meath is concerned with the breeding of deer for hunting by stag hounds, under licence issued by the Minister for the Environment, Heritage and Local Government.
