The Welsh Government acknowledges the difficult market conditions currently being faced by the dairy industry. We are working closely with the UK, Northern Ireland and Scottish Governments to introduce a mandatory pricing mechanism within all dairy contracts between dairy farmers and processors to secure the best outcome for our dairy producers.
We also offer a range of support to improve the financial and environmental performance of farm businesses in Wales, supporting investments in infrastructure, technology and equipment, and remain committed to helping the Welsh dairy sector and Welsh agriculture build sustainable, resilient businesses.
