Agriculture Industry
Dail Éireann — 2021-12-09
============================================================

Matt Carthy (SF), Cavan-Monaghan

There has been much talk about the role of agriculture in respect of our climate action targets. The most common question farmers ask is what this will mean for them. It would be useful if it were possible to carry out a full audit of the carbon storage and capture that is taking place on every farm in order to reward farmers who are involved in good practices and to encourage others to follow suit. Is that something the Minister intends to pursue?
