Young farmers losing route into industry, says Plaid Cymru

Council farms are agricultural units owned by local authorities which are rented out to farmers. They have been a way for young people to enter the farming industry since 1908 to address a decline in the number of farms.

Denbighshire, Flintshire, Anglesey, Merthyr Tydfil, Monmouthshire, Powys and Wrexham sold 184 hectares between them in 2016-17, which raised £4.2m. "The vision for Trecadwgan farm that we have put forward is something that will create employment and offer scope for wellbeing within the community," she said.Phil Dancer says he has been lucky to be able to stay in the area

"I consider myself very lucky to have had it and to be able to stay in the area, which means a lot to me. A Welsh Local Government Association spokesperson said:"Inevitably in the face of acute financial pressures, councils have had to consider selling off some of their farms and some have indeed done so.
