The question addresses the need to support Welsh farmers facing global instability and rising costs of diesel and fertiliser.
What steps she is taking to support the farming sector in Wales. Global instability and the war in Iran are affecting farmers, leading to increased prices for diesel and fertiliser, impacting business viability and future food supply chains. The Plaid Cymru Welsh Government aims to work with Welsh farmers; will the UK Government do the same?
Farming is devolved, so the first port of call for Welsh farmers is the Welsh Government. I look forward to meeting the new Minister and will do my best to work with all the devolved Administrations, including in Wales.
