A number of political heavyweights – including an MEP and two former ministers – will join some high-profile speakers during two panel discussions on Irish agriculture which are set to take place later this week.
The panel discussions will form two halves of the “Hogan Agricultural Seminar”, which is being organised in webinar form by the Young Fine Gael (YFG) Agriculture, Rural and Environmental Affairs Committee.
According to the committee, this seminar’s theme will be: “Agriculture and the Environment – Rather than being the problem, let’s be the solution.”
YFG says that this online event is being organised to “produce an agricultural and environment policy document for the YFG organisation and for recently appointed Midlands North-West MEP Colm Markey”.

Heavyweight investors are increasingly selling their stakes in companies they view as failing to meet these ethical standards.
