Charities have come together to explain that the Welsh government needs to significantly increase investment in wildlife-friendly farming to ensure nature restoration and climate targets are met.

RSPB Cymru, National Trust Cymru and The Wildlife Trust Wales are calling on the Welsh government to urgently commit to a long-term annual investment in nature and climate friendly farming, as with the effect of nature and climate crises worsening, any delay to future proofing the agricultural sector will cost more to fix.

The charities say that up to £594 million per year is required and that programmes such as the Sustainable Farming Scheme must help farmers bring back nature and tackle climate change while producing food sustainably and underpinning resilient businesses.
