A Cavan farmer is battling misinformation online around Irish agriculture and emission reductions.

The government has called for a 25 per cent reduction in agriculture emissions, while rural groups have hit out at the proposal.
He told Northern Sound News that people need to recognise that co-operating is the only way to move forward.
