Abnormal animal death theory discounted by records
The analysis was carried out by the Department of Agriculture at the request of Limerick IFA. Speaking at an IFA meeting, Askeaton farmer Simon White said, “If anything, the rate of deaths in animals in the Askeaton area is lower than average, according to the CMMS records”.
“People were making claims that animals were dying in inordinate numbers, but we could not actually find the evidence on the ground ourselves, and now we know that the evidence is not there, according to the CMMS.”
