Beef grading prices inquiry
Status: Closed
Opened: 15 Jun 2016
Closed: 14 Sep 2016
Farmers have expressed concerns over recent changes to cattle payment grids, which have reduced bonuses on better quality cattle, and has pushed more animals outside the desired grades with increased penalties for heavier carcasses. The Committee takes evidence from farming representatives, the retail sector and processors on this issue.
