NFU Cymru President, John Davies said: “The Royal Welsh Show is the highlight of the agricultural calendar and for many farmers the show provides a chance to get away from the farm and catch up with friends from across the country. While it is understandable that the show cannot take place in its usual form again this year, it’s great to be able to join the show’s activities virtually.
“I’d encourage members to register for our webinars and to take part in the discussions. We have a great line up of speakers, so I’m very much looking forward to what they have to say and the questions we get in.”
For those not able to join the webinars live, the recordings will be available to view on the NFU Cymru website.
