I’ve had a number of calls this week from farmers who have not received their BDGP tags yet.

The Irish Farmers Journal has contacted ICBF and it said that all tags have been sent out to farmers in BDGP1 and participants in BDGP2 will be posted out tags in the coming weeks.

You need to return these tags by 7 December to ensure payment by the end of December.

Farmers should receive a text from ICBF when all samples have been returned.

If tags received in the spring have all been returned, this fulfils requirements for this year.

If you have any queries in relation to tags or scheme requirements contact ICBF on 023-8832883.
