Des Agriland I can’t believe he said that. I looked at circa 75 sets of financial figures for 2023 of very good farmers and no one could do better than low 30s for cost of production. Average was 40c/l and that was before own labour never mind tax and bank repay. Shocking comments.

Kerry Dairy Ireland CEO Pat Murphy completely out of touch with the cost of production of milk in 2024. Clarification of the source of information required !!!! Having looked at 2023 accounts for dairy farmers it nearer 40c/l #Dairy #Agriculture

This comment really shows how far removed Corporate Dairy is from the realities inside the farm gate. With volume⬇️, input costs⬆️ policy compliance⬆️interest rates⬆️. Is it any wonder producers are questioning their direction for the future? These are irresponsible comments.

Early days but this data released by the EPA today is very promising. Jan to June '24 river nitrate concentrations from Ireland's major rivers at lowest levels since 2016. Signs the multiple measures undertaken by farmers across the country are starting to bear fruit.

ESB Networks put in some shift when the chips are down. Another difficult week ahead of them. Hope everyone safe.

On Morning Ireland today, a presenter complained it cost €11.16 to buy food for a meal for 4 (€2.79/hd) No mention of how little food prices increased over past 10 yrs (way behind inflation) or that €2.79/hd is hardly a fair return for farmers producing the food in first place

Some simplistic analysis of recent food price increases in media. Yes, food prices have increased in last 12 months by a little more than general inflation (CPI). However, in last 15 yrs, CPI increased at about 2.5 times the rate of food prices and electricity 10 times.

Speaking at Agriculture & Climate Change conference, Taoiseach Micheál Martin TD highlighted importance of retaining the Nitrates Derogation, confirmed he has raised it with Commission President Ursula Von Der Leyen. Also emphasised need to continue work to improve water quality

Munster hurling 😳😳😳
