<p>Under the Windsor Framework, growers in Northern Ireland can access seed potatoes
from GB which remain prohibited in Ireland. This was not possible under the old Protocol.
Garden centres, farmers and gardeners can access GB plants, trees and other products
considerably more easily than in Ireland. Instead of full EU certification, all plants
and seeds, including seed potatoes will move under a similar mechanism to the UK-wide
plant passport scheme, in line with traders throughout the UK. That means rather than
paying £150 per movement into Northern Ireland, growers and businesses serving Northern
Ireland consumers can pay £120 a year to be part of the UK scheme.</p>
