Dozens of demonstrations are being staged by the Irish Farmers Association (IFA) around the country this evening, in solidarity with EU farmers protesting about regulation, income pressure and bureaucracy.
The demonstrations, which were set be held in every county, are expected to cause local traffic disruption as convoys of tractors take to the roads.
The first of the IFA's solidarity demonstrations was held in Co Clare, with at least 28 others taking place in every county in the country, except Carlow, due to last night's fatal road crash.
Farmers have said they are being subjected to onerous levels of bureaucracy and are calling on authorities to streamline the manner in which they must apply for and register agricultural payments.
