| Title: | A review of land management actions under Axis 2 of the Rural Development Plan for Wales 2007 – 2013 |
| Organisation: | Welsh Assembly Government |
| Issued: | Tue 21 October 2008 |
| Deadline: | 19 December 2008 |
| Status: | CLOSED Consultation is closed for comments |
| Synopsis: | The current consultation on a new strategy for Welsh farming (Farming, Food and Countryside: building a secure future) recognises this multi-objective approach, setting the opportunities for Welsh farmers to position themselves as producers of high-quality, environmentally friendly products alongside the realities of recent and likely future CAP reform, which (as the Health Check proposals and “challenge agenda” published by the European Commission in May 2008 demonstrate) will require adaptation as support is shifted towards rural development measures, and the wider environmental objectives of the Welsh Assembly Government, which will require concerted action on the part of land managers to contribute towards achieving those objectives, for example through conserving soil carbon. |
