Farmers unite in campaign over continuing income fall

ALL farmer organisations have united behind IFA’s family farm survival campaign.

Thousands of farmers nationwide took part in this week’s IFA tractor demonstration, which comes to climax with a rally outside Government Buildings in Dublin tomorrow.

IFA had to turn some farmers away to keep their demonstration manageable and minimise disruption for members of the public. But more farmers will get their chance to protest next week, when ICMSA mount a continuous demonstration outside Government and Department of Agriculture buildings, over a number of days.
