Last week I announced a package of measures worth over €12 million to provide support for Irish farmers in response to the cost increases currently facing the agriculture sector. Part of this package includes a support measure for farmers who wish to establish multi-species swards as part of their 2022 reseeding programme.
The Multi Species Swards Measure opened for applications on 25th March 2022 and farmers can apply to participate through www.agfood.ie until 4th April. Full details regarding the Measure and how it will operate have been published on www.gov.ie. My Department has contacted the person named and explained the application process to him.
