Farmers seeking clarity on Ireland’s agricultural investment supports can now consult the latest TAMS 3 statistics and information table on gov.ie. The Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine has updated the publication to reflect information available as of 28 September 2026.
The update provides an official reference point for farmers, advisers and agricultural businesses reviewing the Targeted Agricultural Modernisation Scheme, commonly known as TAMS 3. The scheme supports investment in farm infrastructure and equipment, subject to the relevant terms, conditions and approval processes.
TAMS 3 statistics information table updated
The publication was originally released on 15 January 2024 and has since been revised. The Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine lists the latest version as the “TAMS 3 Information Table Updated 28 September 2026”.
Rather than presenting the information as a separate news announcement, the department has made the updated table available through its official online publication service. This allows users to access the current document directly and check the information relevant to TAMS 3 applications and agricultural investment planning.
Who may find the update useful?
- Farmers preparing or reviewing TAMS 3 applications
- Agricultural advisers assisting applicants
- Farm organisations monitoring scheme activity
- Businesses supplying eligible farm equipment or infrastructure
- Researchers examining public agricultural investment supports
Applicants should rely on the latest department information and confirm the applicable eligibility criteria, deadlines and documentation requirements before committing to expenditure.
Why the TAMS 3 publication matters to Irish farmers
Government investment schemes can involve detailed requirements, and accurate information is essential when farmers are planning upgrades to buildings, equipment, animal welfare facilities, environmental infrastructure or other eligible improvements. The updated TAMS 3 statistics table offers a central source for checking the department’s published information.
Farmers should also distinguish between an information update and an approval decision. Accessing the table does not itself confirm eligibility or guarantee grant assistance. Individual applications remain subject to the scheme’s rules and the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine’s assessment procedures.
How to use the updated TAMS 3 information
- Open the official publication on gov.ie.
- Review the version date shown on the information table.
- Compare the published details with the requirements for the intended investment.
- Seek advice from an agricultural consultant or relevant department office where necessary.
- Keep copies of supporting documents and monitor official updates.
The Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine remains the authoritative source for scheme information. Related public bodies, including Teagasc and Bord Bia, may provide broader agricultural guidance, but applicants should use the department’s own publication for the latest TAMS 3 details.
Key takeaway for applicants
The updated TAMS 3 statistics information table gives farmers and advisers a current official reference for agricultural investment planning. Check the 28 September 2026 version on gov.ie, read the scheme conditions carefully and obtain professional guidance before submitting an application or beginning work.
