The £3 million indicative funding will be available to all eligible farmers with organic certified land.
The Welsh Government’s commitment to organic support is driven by a combination of environmental, economic and social objectives. Organic farming is seen as a cornerstone of sustainable agriculture in Wales, delivering benefits for biodiversity, climate, rural economies and public health. The government’s support is designed to ensure that organic farming remains viable and attractive, particularly as Wales transitions to the new Sustainable Farming Scheme.
During his speech at the Winter Fair reception, the Deputy First Minister also outlined his vision for Welsh farming, centred on producing food sustainably, protecting the environment and supporting rural communities.
