Weekly podcast: CAP funding, Sinn Féin farming vote and deer issues
Should farmers be paid more through CAP and does the EU want livestock farming to reduce? More farmers say they’d now vote for Sinn Féin and deer are causing havoc on farms in Galway.
In this week's news podcast, political correspondent Pat O’Toole talks to us about European Commissioner for Agriculture Janusz Wojciechowski’s visit to Ireland this week.
The Commissioner shared his views on CAP supports and livestock farming.
Pat also outlines the political insights taken from our farmer survey and explains why more farmers say they’ll vote for Sinn Féin at the next General Election.
