COVID-19: New funding to support Welsh dairy farmers

Welsh Government have announced funding for Welsh dairy farmers hardest hit by the recent exceptional market conditions as a result of coronavirus (COVID-19).

The dairy sector has felt the immediate impact of the global pandemic with the closure of the food service and hospitality sectors.

To support the sector during these challenging times, Welsh Government has confirmed eligible dairy farmers who have lost more than 25% of their income in April and subsequently May will be entitled to up to £10,000, to cover 70% of their lost income.

This will help ensure they can continue to operate without impacting animal welfare and the environment.

Further details on the scheme will be announced shortly.
