Ireland’s unusually dry summer is forcing some farmers to start using winter animal feed months earlier than planned. The Irish Farmers’ Association says there is no national feed shortage yet, but weeks of little rain have slowed grass growth in some areas, increased costs and pushed farms towards winter-style feeding. The group wants the National Fodder and Food Security Committee to meet urgently, assess supplies and make sure feed can be moved to areas that need it most. The concern is simple: if reserves are being eaten in August, there may not be enough left when winter actually arrives.
