The Fodder Transport Support measure was announced in January 2018.  The measure aims to provide a contribution towards the cost of transporting fodder, sourced through the Co-operatives, from areas of surplus to those areas in need, located primarily in the West and North West.

To date no applications have been received from County Mayo. The closing date for applications under the measure is 20 April.
