TB programme set for 'significant' Budget increase while funding for tillage farmers also on the cards
"The new 30-point bTB action plan - announced by Agriculture Minister Martin Heydon in recent weeks - is expected to be fully funded"
"It's understood that the overall budget for the agricultural sector will be up on last year and the new 30-point bTB action plan - announced by Agriculture Minister Martin Heydon in recent weeks - will be fully funded, and has a significant rise compared to last year's budget."
Significant additional funding for bovine tuberculosis (bTB) is expected in the upcoming Budget, with the new 30-point bTB action plan to receive full funding. The overall agricultural sector budget is projected to increase compared with last year. The 30-point action plan was announced by Agriculture Minister Martin Heydon in recent weeks. The funding commitment represents a significant rise over the previous year's TB budget allocations. The Budget announcement is expected to confirm these increases and allocate the necessary resources to implement the bTB action plan across the agricultural sector.
