Farmers, James O’Reilly, from Kilkenny, and James Hegarty, from Cork, join this week’s Tillage Edge podcast to chat about the harvest so far.
James O’Reilly says that winter barley yields were mixed and the average is likely to be lower than other years, while James Hegarty admits his yields are also mixed but he is happy with grain quality.
Both farmers expressed their frustration over the withdrawal and subsequent re-instatement of the straw chopping scheme.
They expressed their anger not only over the scheme and treatment of the tillage sector, but also voiced concerns about the straw incorporation scheme for next year.
