The investments available under the pilot Calf Investment Scheme have now been made available under three of the suite of seven measures available under TAMS II.
The new calf welfare items added are computerised calf feeders and milk carts with mixers. These items may be applied for under Animal Welfare, Safety and Nutrient Storage (AWSNSS), Young Farmer's Capital Investment Scheme (YFCIS) and the Organic Capital Investment Scheme (OFCIS).
The current Tranche of TAMS II is open for applications and will close on 16 April 2021. Full details of TAMS II are available on my Department's Website www.gov.ie/agriculture.
