Irish stakeholders invited to shape EU Parliament generational renewal report

MEP Maria Walsh calls for young farmers and representing organisations to have their say in EU Parliament report on generational renewal

MEP Maria Walsh: 'Too many young people want to farm but are held back by cost, uncertainty and barriers that simply make it too difficult to get started. This report is an opportunity to set out exactly what needs to change and how we deliver it.'

Irish stakeholders are invited to submit views on generational renewal in farming, ahead of a European Parliament report.

As the parliament’s lead negotiator on generational renewal, MEP Maria Walsh is seeking input from young farmers, farming organisations, academics, rural groups, financial institutions and all those with an interest in the future of Irish and European agriculture.
