The move from the Minister for Agriculture will primarily impact tillage farmers.
The Minister for Agriculture has proposed to defer the straw incorporation measure for 2024, which will primarily effect tillage farmers.
The Irish grain growers group and the IFA met with Minister McConalogue this morning, urging him to retract his decision as they expressed their disappointment.
Last winter diminished national reserves of straw which resulted in very little availability for this year.
President of the IFA, Laois' Francie Gorman says, this result in a direct hit to tillage farmers.
