From diesel costs to the ripple effects on fertiliser, feed and transport, this episode connects the global picture to the reality on Irish farms.

Lorcan brings his expertise to break down the latest Government supports, explaining new measures aimed at easing the burden of rising diesel prices and outlining exactly how taxes such as excise, carbon tax and VAT are affecting agricultural fuel costs.
