Farmers from across Wales are being encouraged to join a seminar on weatherproof farming for the future at the Royal Welsh Show this year.

Hybu Cig Cymru – Meat Promotion Wales (HCC) is pleased to be joining forces with the Nature Friendly Farming Network (NFFN) Cymru to host this panel discussion, featuring soil health specialist Niels Corfield and Welsh farmers Rhodri Lloyd-Williams and Aled Picton Evans.

The talk will take place on the HCC stand (M744) at 10:30am on Tuesday 23 July.

Niels, an independent farming advisor and trainer who has recently worked with NFFN Cymru on a series of workshops, will explore how soil health can help farmers make their land more resilient to the shocks of extreme weather conditions as a result of climate change, without having to compromise on the amount of food they produce or threatening their bottom line.

Upland sheep farmer Rhodri from Talybont, near Aberystwyth and lowland beef and sheep Carmarthenshire farmer, Aled will outline their practical experiences of producing quality red meat on grass-based systems whilst facing frequent challenges and changes in the weather.

NFFN Cymru manager Rhys Evans said: “If you're worried about falling farm incomes, farm business resilience and coping with winter flooding and summer droughts, then this session is for you. Over 200 farmers attended NFFN Cymru's recent Weatherproof Farming workshop series, led by the brilliant Niels Corfield, which is testament to its popularity. We're delighted to be working with Hybu Cig Cymru to bring this session to the Royal Welsh Show."

HCC’s Rachael Madeley Davies, Head of Sustainability and Future Policy, said: “Many challenges have been thrown at our sector in recent years, from Brexit to Covid, and policy changes to inclement weather, all of which have taken their toll on the productivity and profitability of our farms.

“We can’t control the weather but we can plan ahead and prepare. We are pleased to be working with the NFFN at the Show and look forward to hearing from Niels Corfield on how improving soil health can reduce reliance on costly artificial inputs and allow farms to switch to grazing systems which are more sustainable for the future.”
