Young Farmers “have the most to lose” from Brexit, Macra national president Seán Finan has said.

At a meeting of the Macra na Feirme agricultural affairs committee, young farmers expressed their concerns about the implications of Britain’s exit from the EU on the future viability of their businesses.

Speaking after the meeting of Mr Finan said: “The collapse of the value of sterling is concerning. Young farmers are adamant that processors cannot be allowed to take advantage of the situation.”
