Attendance at our @NFUCymru roadshows has exceeded expectations but that should be no surprise considering all the implications to rural businesses . Tonight Brecon Market 7.30

We @BangorSNS have worked with Nigel Scollan, Anne Nugent and @LyndaPerkins of @QUBIGFS on the env impacts of lamb through @HybuCigCymru projects. In a nutshell: lamb can have notably lower impacts than other foods, per unit of nutrition.
Important message to communicate

Delighted to announce the opening of the new €8m National Liming Programme.
This will provide a €16/t subvention for the spreading of lime.
Applications are open until 20th April and can be made through AgFood.ie.
Well said Terry , more diplomatic than I might have been.
Were you spouting this nonsense when you were on the @DefraGovUK Board? It’s unthinkable that a non-exec in any other economic department would run down the industries they were meant to sponsor. Suppose we shouldn’t be surprised that ELMS is failing the uplands so badly.
Good luck
Another contender for the position of NFYFC Vice Chair is Raiff Devlin from @Brecknockyfc.
Raiif is keen to be elected into the post so he can use his leadership skills to ensure YFC delivers for members across England and Wales.
