Cut back on iron? (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

decrease

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'cut back' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'iron?' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'on' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for decrease that I've seen before include "Reduction" , "Abate, diminish" , "Turn down" , "Reduce, lessen" , "Contract" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
