The Minister for Agriculture is being called on to have more ambition in supporting young farmers.

Former Macra na Feirme President Thomas Duffy welcomed the Minister making himself available to local farmers, but said he must take on-board what was said.

ICMSA Deputy President and Bailieborough native Lorcan McCabe welcomed the discussion but
