| | | IFA National Pigs and Pigmeat Committee Chairman Tim Cullinan welcomed the successful conclusion to negotiations between farmers and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that will improve competitiveness by reducing costly and unnecessary double regulation. |
| | | IFA National Pigs and Pigmeat Committee Chairman Tim Cullinan said ‘We are calling on Enterprise Ireland to relook at the structure of the pigmeat sector and we are seeking an urgent meeting with Minister for Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation Richard Bruton Minister as it appears that only for the campaigns run by IFA such as the DNA traceability, processors would be unable to secure or maintain markets at home. If they cannot make a profit when demand on the export markets is so strong, we, pig producers, have to be concerned about what the future holds for the industry. |
| | | IFA National Pigs and Pigmeat Committee Chairman Tim Cullinan has said the Minister for Enterprise Richard Bruton should investigate Irish pigmeat factories, which he said were jeopardising the future of the Irish pig industry. |
| | | IFA National Pigs and Pigmeat Committee Chairman Tim Cullinan called an emergency meeting of pig producers to discuss the crisis the situation on Irish farms. The meeting was attended by a large crowd of pig producers, who voiced their anger strongly against the processors and retailers who are profiting at a time when producers are losing money on every pig sold. |
