Farmers from across the country are travelling to Dublin City this afternoon to protest against the Government's position on the Climate Action Plan and the Common Agricultural Policy (CAP).

More than 100 farmers, along with 80 tractors and other farm vehicles, are expected to drive along the capital's streets, with traffic likely to be disrupted.
