Farmers' Frustration

No farmers, no food - Welsh farmers warn of protests ahead.

Farmers and suppliers gathered in Carmarthen Mart this week amid growing uncertainty and concerns over the future farming policy for Wales, cuts to rural budgets and what they see as an attack on their way of life. Country Focus presenter, Caroline Evans attends the meeting.
Meanwhile, the rural affairs minister Leslie Griffiths has rejected calls to pause the consultation into the Sustainable Farming Scheme and urges everyone to reply with their views by 7th March 2024.
And the circle of life - the natural burial ground in Pembrokeshire seeking volunteers to plant trees.
