NFU Cymru

Events co-ordinated by the NFU, NFU Cymru and Ulster Farmers' Union all took place on January 25 to highlight the impact of changes to Inheritance Tax on family farmers

Industry leaders from across agriculture shared their hopes for the sector in 2025, and the challenges that lie ahead over the next 12 months

NFU president Tom Bradshaw said without a ‘resolution’ on Inheritance Tax, the issue is likely to continue to ‘hang over the industry’ in 2025, preventing British agriculture moving forward

The survey of more than 400 farmers found that of the 65% of Welsh farmers who had already invested in infrastructure or were planning to, 30% said it had come at a cost of over £100,000

NFU Cymru president Aled Jones said he was ‘deeply concerned' any future adjustments to agricultural funding into the Welsh block grant would be ‘subject to the Barnett formula'

NFU Cymru president Aled Jones said the budget for SFS must match up with the 'scale of ambition' for sustainable food production and environmental outcomes

The farm-level 10% tree cover figure has been removed and will be replaced by a scheme-wide target, which will be agreed after discussions with the Ministerial Roundtable

"It's a brilliant idea, and I think we can go wider than this by getting the message across to workplaces too"

NFU Cymru president Aled Jones said 'around £340 million should be forthcoming from the Treasury block grant to Welsh Government for agricultural support'
