Paul Deane's thoughts on the debate in Ireland on Agriculture and Climate Targets
Great analysis, clearly laid out. But before we just give up completely and put a moratorium in place, should we not see if we can find a solution that would enable us to support an industry that has been absolutely critical to our economic well being?
