How secure is Ireland’s food supply?

Trevor Donnellan, head of economics and surveys at Teagasc, joins us to examine how secure Ireland’s food supply is. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has sparked concern over global supplies of grain and disrupted the production of fertiliser, vital for growing crops elsewhere. Where do we get most of our food from, how much do we produce ourselves, and how might we be impacted by this latest crisis?The Explainer is brought to you by The Journal. Providing open access to valuable journalism in Ireland has been the aim of The Journal for a decade.
