The sale price of upland and bog took a serious hit as a result of environmental designations, and the same could happen with rewet peatlands, the INHFA president claimed.
Meanwhile, Minister McConalogue has claimed that State land managed by agencies such as Bord na Móna and Coillte could meet all rewetting targets, if targets are reduced from the original proposal.
Kelleher spoke after council signalled it will look for lower targets than the European Commission had initially sought, meaning that less farmland could be affected by the proposals.
A huge amount of uncertainty, a recent decision to increase the area for rewetting and political comments this week from the French President means rewetting is under the spotlight
If farmer buy-in for rewetting is to be gained, the Government need to stop telling us about it and start showing what it looks like. And how it will be paid for.
