The objective of the Beef Environmental Efficiency Programme – Suckler is to further increase economic and environmental efficiency in the suckler herd through better quality data on herd performance, supporting decision making on farm and support of best practice in welfare management.

Applications for this programme were made via my Department's online application system at www.agfood.ie.  The opening date for applications was 12th March 2020 and the closing date for receipt of applications was 15th May 2020.

A letter issued from my Department to the person named on 24th August 2020 advising that his late application could not be accepted and that it was open to him to seek a review.  To date, no further correspondence has been received from the person named in this regard.
