The INHFA has called on Teagasc to cancel any invoices issued to farmers for inclusion in Teagasc-facilitated Knowledge Transfer (KT) groups, and apologise to and refund farmers who have already paid for KT group membership.
INHFA chair Vincent Roddy said the Department of Agriculture’s €500 annual payment per participant for Teagasc facilitators should be “more than sufficient”.
He said most farmers would not have joined a Teagasc KT Group if they were going to have to pay an additional fee. Roddy also requested the Department of Agriculture to review the charges.
