As a grower of grain to supply the Drinks Industry I want to highlight the fact that the value of grain in a pint of beer in only about 2•5 cent .
I have to try make a profit out of that 2•5 cent value with the cost of producing grain in Ireland gone up drastically in recent years.The average pint of beer sells for near €6 in Ireland.
My ask is that a cent is added to the price of a pint to go directly to the farmer growing the grain.
