Speaking at the IFA-organised Dairy 2020 Conference today, IFA President
John Bryan said the publication of the Dairy Sector Road Map shows there is
real momentum behind the implementation of the targets set down in the Food
Harvest 2020 Report.

Mr Bryan said he was pleased that the report prepared by the Dairy Expansion
Activation Group contained much of the submission made by IFA last November
and had identified the specific actions that need to be undertaken by each
of the stakeholders within a defined timeline.

John Bryan said all stakeholders must now move in a joined-up way to
implement the recommendations to ensure that the dairy sector can seize the
opportunities for profitable expansion in the best interests of dairy
farmers and the country.
