As the debate about the next CAP heats up, this week the team delves into the CAP beneficiaries database to see who received the highest payments last year.

Fine Gael believes that the 0.1LU/ha stocking rate level to qualify for direct payments should be examined and we hear from Ireland South MEP Seán Kelly on the matter.

We also hear from Phil Hogan, discuss beef finishers and talk about the priorities of the new minister for forestry Niall Collins.
