FARMING POLL 2015: Farmers have faith in local maternity hospitals but rural broadband an issue

Three-quarters of those in the farming community have faith in their local maternity hospital, an Irish Examiner/ICMSA poll shows.

While 49% have strong faith in their local maternity service, one in five are undecided on the issue.

However, fewer than half of all farmers are happy with the level of broadband available to them in their area, according to the poll.
