Galway Bay fm newsroom – 7,500 farmers across Galway are to share 6 million euro in funding.
The payments have been allocated under the Areas of Natural Constraints Scheme, and will be paid out in the coming weeks.
The scheme gives financial support to island farmers, and those in mountainous or otherwise challenging areas.
Nationally, 140 million euro will be provided to farmers across Ireland.
Senator Maura Hopkins says the funding will provide a welcome boost to farmers in Galway and Roscommon who have been affected by wet conditions this summer.
