Welsh Government funding schemes in 2025 will focus on preparing for the launch of the Sustainable Farming Scheme in 2026

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 Welsh Government's new outline for the Sustainable Farming Scheme has ‘scaled back' the number of universal actions from 17 to 12

Welsh Conservatives set to launch its 'Welsh Farming and Countryside Scheme' at the Royal Welsh Winter Fair, as an alternative to the Welsh Government's 'damaging' Sustainable Farming Scheme

Welsh Conservatives said the family farm tax will be 'detrimental to the future of farming in Wales', warning that food security will be 'threatened and food prices will rise'

"Labour have not thought through this policy"

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

Cabinet Secretary for Rural Affairs and Climate Change Huw Irranca-Davies said: "What we are doing is bringing forward a scheme that is right and accessible to all farmers, in order to do that we need lock the doors, bury ourselves away, and crunch through some serious matters"
