The Irish Creamery Milk Suppliers’ Association (ICMSA) has indicated that the Budget must “position farming and agri-food for post-Covid-19 recovery”.
The Association’s president, Pat McCormack - who was speaking in advance of tomorrow’s Budget - said that while farmers realised the constraints that Budget 2021 would be delivered within, specific measures are required to enable the farming and agri-food sectors to deal with the ongoing challenges presented by Covid-19 and Brexit.
