ANGLESEY FARMER IS NEW FUW LIVESTOCK COMMITTEE CHAIRMAN

Anglesey farmer Dafydd Roberts has been elected as the new chairman of the Farmers' Union of Wales's influential livestock, wool and marts committee.

Mr Roberts, a past county chairman and county president of the union's Anglesey branch, farms around 300 acres at Tryfil Uchaf, Llandrygan, Llanerchymedd.

Together with his wife Cadi, a retired teacher, he runs a flock of 500 Suffolk cross and half-bred sheep and 100 Friesian beef cattle.

Mr Roberts, who was born on the farm in 1945 and has lived there ever since, studied agriculture at the former Coleg Pencraig at Llangefni. He has four children and nine grandchildren.

He said: "It is a great honour for me to be elected as chairman of this important committee and I look forward to continuing the good work the previous chairman, Aeron Prysor Jones, has done for the union and its members."
