A GOVERNMENT SCHEME will give farmers who grow rare and wild flowers in the Burren, Co Clare almost €300,000 in support of the project.

According to a report in today’s Irish Times the money has been approved for the 117 participating farmers who will grow “species-rich grassland” which will contain the flowers.

One farmer said that the ”cacophony of colour” in the Burren will be “even louder” this year as a result of the programme which is being jointly funded by the environment and agriculture departments.
