Farm Subsidies - as the UK government continue negotiations with the European Union for a "brexit deal" here in Wales the Welsh Government's consultation "Brexit and our Land," their proposals to support farmers after we leave the EU, draws to a close at the end of this month. Launched in July this year Rural Affairs Secretary Lesley Griffiths said it was a chance to design a "Made in Wales" system.Β  We hear from a farmer who has responded to the consultation.Β  AllΒ farmers, foresters and other people who manage Welsh land to respond with their views.
