December 19: Farming in Five: NFU Cymru farmer survey reveals 'eyewatering' investment and costs for Welsh farming businesses to comply with Welsh Government's water quality regulations

Description: In today's Farming in Five, Chief Reporter Rachael Brown shares findings from NFU Cymru survey which highlights the ‘eyewatering investment’ and staggering costs facing Welsh farming businesses in order to comply with Welsh Government’s water quality regulations. Elsewhere, farming unions across the UK have joined forces for today’s big banner campaign to apply further political pressure on the Government following changes to Inheritance Tax in Chancellor’s Autumn Budget. And Wales' Chief Veterinary Officer, Dr Richard Irvine, is encouraging bird keepers in Wales to take action now to protect their flocks from bird flu and stop the spread of the highly infectious disease, following an increase in number of cases of avian influenza in poultry and kept birds, across Great Britain.
