@RTE_PrimeTime And in the interest of “balance” (RTÉ style), they have declined the offer of a live interview with the IFA president on the show.

China’s dairy consumption will evolve as it adds 120 million people to the over 50 age demographic. This will cause a pivot from infant formula to adult nutrition in the dairy space. Mary Ledman of Rabobank

About 5% to 10% of consumers will pay higher prices for products when it comes to climate change and ESG issues (environmental, social, and governance). The rest will purchase based on flavor, taste, value, and price. Michael Brown of International Dairy Foods Association (IDFA)

Cheese exports are growing. Prior to 2019, 1 in 10 pounds of new cheese production was destined for export. That number is now 1 in 4 new pounds of cheese production goes to export markets. William Loux of U.S. Dairy Export Council and National Milk Producers Federation

The U.S. has a great opportunity to grow dairy exports as Europe has lost some confidence in its future due to the continent’s climate mitigation strategies. That situation has essentially froze investments in dairy plants and dairy farms. It’s also given hesitation to the next generation of dairy farmers on succession planning. Mary Ledman

At the moment, the U.S. has a unique form of supply management — it’s the movement to breed dairy cows to beef bulls. That’s taking place because of the high cost raise dairy replacements and the record market value for beef-on-dairy calves that are fetching between $600 to $1,000. Until milk prices incentive dairy farmers to make more dairy heifers, there will be a limit to milk production’s growth. Michael Brown

This past year U.S. dairy farmers purchased 7.9 million units of beef semen. Just five years ago that number was under 2 million units. Presently dairy heifers 500-pounds and lower are at a 20-year low. Corey Geiger

The Department has stated that mortality during calf export journeys are lower than is expected of calves which remain on farms. An EU audit of Ireland’s calf export protocols has found them 'consistent and high-quality'.

Clear message from Clonakilty @IFAmedia tonight at "the future proofing dairy farming in West Cork". Fallout from this derogation fiasco is devastating to the area and the mental wellbeing of the farmers affected.

[Pat O Toole @potooleifj]

Tomorrow night sees your last chance to see @mstapo and @gormanifa debate the issues as they contest the @IFAmedia presidency.
Why not head over to https://t.co/DFjJdFS1cU to see them from 7.30 pm.
This weeks long read suggests it's worth your while

In Tullamore last night, I appealed to farmers in ALL sectors and in ALL areas to come out and vote in the upcoming Presidential election.

[Bill O Keeffe 🐄 @billokeeffe]

Dunmore East beaches were closed yesterday due to a sewage overflow. Nothing about it in media anywhere. If it was slurry overflow from cows causing the problem...
Makes you wonder about all this EPA reporting.

[Darragh Scott @DarraghScott]

I certainly hope the farmer on the opposite river bank has their fences back 1.5metres.....
