Only dairy herds of less than 40 cows can access BEAM beef scheme
Only dairy herds of less than 40 dairy cows will have access to the new €100 million Beef Exceptional Aid Measure (BEAM).
When Agriculture Minister Michael Creed announced details of BEAM, today, he said smaller dairy farms typically have a mixed farming enterprise, with a lower than average dairy farm income, and a beef enterprise accounting for a higher proportion of total farm income.
