But far from feeling a smug sense of satisfaction about playing my part to help save the planet, it’s left me wondering about what’s going to become of a sector that’s been a visible part of the fabric of Irish life for so long and is now facing unprecedented disruption.
Are all the plant-based solutions being put forward as viable as we may think? And do farmers themselves hold the key to positive change?
