Lowland sheep farmers expressed anger that they are “the forgotten farmers” under CAP reform. At a sheep meeting in Enniscorthy last week, farmers rejected the decision to incorporate the Sheep Grassland scheme into the Single Farm Payment and expressed fears that they would find access to the GLAS scheme difficult. There are over 1,150 sheep flocks in Wexford, almost all of them lowland. Farmers came out in force to the meeting, organised predominantly to deal with a spate of dog attacks on sheep in the county in recent weeks (see page 38).
