The Roscommon IFA Chairman says he's not sure the Agriculture Minister fully appreciates the urgency of the food security crisis facing the country.
Jim O' Connor says a special committee was talked about at a meeting between IFA and the Minister last night, but the initial suggestion was that a first meeting would be held sometime after St Patrick's Day.
The Roscommon farmer says that food security is very clearly a major issue, and farmers need help urgently to play their part.
