think the sfp system is flawed, based on what farms where being used for 10 years ago. Now have a system where an ineffecient farmer can be earning twice as much as a better farmer over the ditch just because the farm grants where used to best effect 10 years ago, and some of the farms have been handed over in the mean time to sons etc. Its not a level playing field, and this needs to change...

the problem is that europe wanted ireland to change from its historical distribution of sfp to a flat rate even distribution but the irish farm organisations were opposed to this.
