On this week’s Farmview May 7th podcast, we get the reaction from the Irish Farmers' Association to the Government’s Fuel Support Package and what it means for the agri sector, from rising costs to the pressure on farm incomes. We also discuss why early cutting is the key to producing top-quality first cut silage and how timing can make a major difference to feed value and winter performance. Plus, we bring you the latest update on this season’s winter and spring tillage crops, looking at current conditions, crop progress, and what farmers can expect in the weeks ahead.
