IFA President Tim Cullinan, who is leading the convoy, said farmers are “being asked to do more and more for less”. “We have consistently called for genuine engagement and negotiation with farm organisations to develop a farm-level plan that farmers can work towards achieving,” Cullinan said. “Farmers are very conscious of the climate challenge, and farmers want to play their part.
