This is the ICSA CAP Plan – and it includes the following key demands.

·  €300/hd per suckler cow – including €120 variable coupled payment on first 40 cows plus €180 from BDGP/BEEP type schemes – no upper limit on numbers 

·  €35/hd per breeding ewe – Including €16 variable coupled payment on first 250 ewes plus €19 from Sheep Welfare type scheme – no upper limit on numbers 

·  €100/head beef carbon efficiency payment – €40/hd for weighing and up to €60/hd for finishing younger to maximum 150 animals 

·  Young Farmers – 25% top-up for young farmers under variable suckler and ewe coupled payments. 

It is a plan that is technically feasible under the regulations, meets all EU objectives, and is fully costed.

ICSA SLAMS UNFAIR TARGETING OF IRISH LIVESTOCK HAULIERS ABROAD

ICSA president Sean McNamara has said he is urgently seeking clarification regarding the recent targeting of Irish livestock trucks by Irish officials at the port of Cherbourg. “ICSA has been contacted by several of the livestock hauliers affected who claim they were singled out by the Irish officials for additional inspections by the French authorities while non livestock carrying trucks were left alone. This was despite these inspections having no relevance to animal welfare,” he said.
