ICSA president Edmond Phelan has welcomed news that C & D Foods will apply to have injunctions against two individuals struck out. “The continuation of injunctions went against the letter and the spirit of the Beef Sector Agreement and their removal will pave the way for the Beef Taskforce to meet, and this needs to happen as soon as possible,” he said.

“Valuable time has been lost and farmers have been losing money hand over fist in the meantime. It is wholly unacceptable that this matter should have been allowed to drag out for so long.”

CHANGES TO BEEF BREEDING INDEXES OF PEDIGREE BULLS HAVE GONE TOO FAR

ICSA president Dermot Kelleher has said ICBF have gone too far with their changes to the beef breeding indexes regarding pedigree bulls. Commenting on the changes which came into effect this week Mr Kelleher said, “ICSA met with ICBF back in early November where we were reassured that no drastic changes would be made; this has turned out to be far from the case however. The changes are proving to have considerable ramifications for farmers participating in the SCEP scheme and indeed for the future of the suckler sector as a whole,” he said.
