A survey of the membership of the Irish Natura and Hill Farmers Association (INHFA) has indicated “overwhelming support” for full convergence of Pillar I payments of the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP), the association has said.
The survey included 10 questions that the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine had issued to the stakeholders of the CAP Consultation Committee. These questions were then circulated to all INHFA members, with over 200 members replying.
Commenting on these replies, INHFA President Colm O’Donnell stated: “This particular response is in line with previous engagement with our member base on CAP, which we commenced through a series of branch and county meetings in Spring 2018.”
