The Irish Cattle and Sheep Farmers’ Association (ICSA) Animal Health and Welfare chair Hugh Farrell, has said that the TB strategy won’t succeed unless it is on the basis of mutual co-operation and fair play for all farmers.
Farrell said:
“The ICSA has engaged with the TB Forum from the start on the basis that we are all in this together.
A minority of farmers cannot be sacrificed and that’s why the ICSA is insisting on fair compensation in all cases. There are a wide range of representatives on the TB Forum but the key stakeholders are farmers and this must never be forgotten.
