Written Answers. - Green Certificate Course.

Frank Crowley

Ceist:

175 Mr. Crowley asked the Minister for Agriculture, Food and Forestry the number of people who completed the green certificate course in farming who subsequently take up full-time farming. [15003/95]

Teagasc surveys show that up to 90 per cent of those who successfully complete the three year green certificate, or certificate in farming course, take up farming and the vast majority do so on a full-time basis. About 900 students obtain the green certificate annually.
