This is the first year where the annual inventory must be completed in December rather than January, and brings the dates of the Wales inventory in line with England.
The form, which is a legal requirement, should include the number of sheep and goats owned by the keeper on 1 December 2024 and the CPH where they were located on this date. This should include common land and any temporary CPH.
NFU Cymru Livestock Board Chairman Rob Lewis said: “With a relatively short time period to get the inventory form completed, I would urge all sheep and goat keepers to prioritise this work if you haven’t already done so.”
How to complete the inventory
Sheep and goat keepers registered with EIDCymru will see the inventory available on their account at eidcymru.org. Keepers not registered with EIDCymru can complete the inventory on the EIDCymru online portal.
