Farmers’ Union of Wales officials and members met up with Ogmore Assembly Member Huw Irranca-Davies at Blackmill Sheep Sales on Thursday October 13, to discuss #FarmingMatters.

The wide ranging discussions focused on Nitrate Vulnerable Zones (NVZs), bovine TB, open access,  future funding for the sector following the UK’s withdrawal from the European Union,  planning regulations in the constituency and succession.

FUW Gwent County Executive Officer Glyn Davies said: “I would like to thank Huw Irranca-Davies for meeting with us at Blackmill Sheep Sales to discuss farming matters. The sale serves as a great example of how  important agriculture is to our local community and highlights the contribution made to the rural economy.”

Mr Irranca-Davies added: “As an Assembly Member who represents a large rural constituency, it is always good to meet with local farmers and I welcome any opportunity to discuss any concerns they may have, particularly following the Brexit vote.”
