What the IFA is proposing in its Budget 2022 submission

Setting out its stall ahead of the budget the organisation notes that Irish agriculture is in a 'perilous position'

IFA Farm Business Chair Rose Mary McDonagh and IFA President Tim Cullinan launch IFA’s pre-Budget submission ahead of Budget 2022 in October.

The IFA has published its 2022 Pre-Budget submission this past week. The organisation notes that Irish agriculture is in a perilous position with Irish farmers facing an increasingly uncertain future. 

The document makes a number of asks including ‘full funding for existing farm schemes in the CAP Transition Period which continues through 2022’ along with putting in place ‘appropriate agri-taxation measures to support the sustainable growth and efficient restructuring of the sector’.
