Illegal hare coursing is getting out of control in the Vale of Glamorgan. We as farmers in the county are feeling unsafe and anxious about this issue. We urgently need @swpolice to follow the other Welsh forces and set up a #ruralcrime team. #NationalRuralCrimeActionWeek

[NFU Cymru 🚜 @NFUCymru]

"We don't want to feel like we're unsafe on our own farms."

We're kicking off #NationalRuralCrimeActionWeek with an urgent call for South Wales Police to provide more support to farmers plagued by a rise in violent hare coursing incidents ⤵️

How can politicians be beyond reproach, be so confident that they are right and others wrong?
Treasury, please show us your impact assessment and be prepared to at least consult.

[Aled Jones NFU Cymru @AledNfu]

Thank you for meeting with us today Steve, there is a resolution to be found without causing irreversible damage to such a crucial industry. We only need @RachelReevesMP to pause and consult, it's the only sensible solution.

[Aled Jones NFU Cymru @AledNfu]

Very grateful for your support @SophieThroup1 . We should all remember our argument is not with our customers but with @RachelReevesMP #StopTheFamilyFarmTax #StopiwchYDrethFfermDeuluol

"What assessment has the minister made for the impact of the changes to the APR in Wales?"

Diolch i @AnnBremenda am eu cwestiwn i'r gweinidog yn Tŷ’r Cyffredin.

Thank you to Ann Davies for her question on APR in the House of Commons.

🚨The Prime Minister @Keir_Starmer was absolutely right that ‘Losing a farm is not like losing any other business. It can’t come back’.

Which is why @RachelReevesMP must be clear that there will be no changes to APR, as pledged by @SteveReedMP.

[Aled Jones NFU Cymru @AledNfu]

Many of us who've had the pleasure of working with Abi can testify to her untirying work on behalf of fellow farmers. There's no doubting such a worthy recipient for this most prestigious recognition. Llongyfarchiadau Abi👏👏👏

[NFU Cymru 🚜 @NFUCymru]

We recently welcomed Defra Minister of State, @DanielZeichner along with @WGRural, @KanishkaNarayan and @JaneHutt to our Deputy President's farm.

"It's the worst farming year I have ever known since I've been home from college, and I've been home 15 years."

Our Glamorgan County Chair, @Tom_thebryn has been highlighting the impacts of the wet weather on farm. This weather has been relentless for farmers right across Wales.

[NFU Cymru 🚜 @NFUCymru]

The prolonged period of wet weather is having a huge impact on farms of all sectors across Wales.

This morning we created a symbolic display of 5,500 pairs of wellies on the steps of the Senedd to represent the jobs forecasted to be lost through Welsh Government’s Sustainable Farming Scheme proposals.
