Abstract:
The agreement on the reduction of the trade barriers between the United
Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland has given rise to hopes of a new
impetus to the development of Irish agriculture. Economic history is not reversible and no trade agreement
could re-create the same precise relationships between the agriculture of
Southern and Northern Ireland in 1966 that existed in 1926, but closer
trade and economic ties will make the current farming trends in Northern
Ireland of much greater significance to the rural community in the rest of
Ireland than has been the case in recent years.
