Ballinakill's Francie Gorman was voted as South Leinster Chairman last Friday.
The new South Leinster Chairman of the IFA is targeting an expansion of the sheep welfare scheme.
Ballinakill's Francie Gorman wants to see the payment increased to €30 per head going forward.
He beat off competition from Wexford's James Kehoe to land the role in an online vote last Friday.
Mr. Gorman says it's not just the fallout from Brexit that is worrying for the sector:
