IFA says the schemes aren't fair to Irish Farmers.
EU Agriculture Ministers will begin a two day summit in Brussels today aimed at ratifying reforms to the CAP farm subsidy programme.
The deal will account for about a third of the EU's budget between 2021 and 2027, with 387 billion euro being spent.
