Will the Cabinet Secretary explain how the Welsh Government Rural Communities–Rural Development Programme 2014-2020 works with young farmers, and would the Welsh Government be willing to work with branches of the National Federation of Young Farmers' Clubs in Wales to provide advice on making a successful application for funding?
Farmers of all ages are eligible to apply for most of the schemes under the Welsh Government Rural Communities–Rural Development Programme 2014-2020. Full details of the programme are available on our website and we publicise news about scheme expressions of interest windows across the industry.
My Department works closely with Wales Young Farmers Club (YFC) and is happy to provide application advice.
