Pork, Eggs & Veg under pressure

“…fears that, rather than raising prices to coax UK farmers back, imports will also increase. The amount of British produce on the shelves from our farmers & growers has reduced considerably this year already…”

Proclamation at Swansea Guild hall today. Maybe cliched now but real sense of being part of History. #GodSaveTheKing

[Rob Powell @Rob_Powell91]

Couldn't have been put better @AbiReader. Welsh agriculture at the forefront of sustainability, quality and affordability. Confidence and stability needed from the Welsh Government to see this continue and prosper for all of Wales. #wearewelshfarming

Great to visit Tirhester Farm, near Waunarlwydd this afternoon with @NFUCymru as part of #welshfarmingweek

It's so important that the Welsh Government puts farmers at the heart of their plans to ensure greater self-sustainability and promote local food production.
