NFU Cymru members in Pembrokeshire are invited to a county meeting to discuss bovine TB.
At the meeting, which will take place at Wolfscastle Country Hotel, Wolfscastle on Thursday, February 3, at 7.30pm, members will receive a presentation on Welsh government’s recently announced consultation on their proposals for a refreshed TB eradication programme.
NFU Cymru Pembrokeshire county chairman, Roger Lewis, said: “NFU Cymru is seeking members’ views on this new consultation and the policy team would very much value your input to help inform the union’s response.
"This is an open meeting, and all members are welcome to attend. I do hope you can join us to discuss these issues and I look forward to hearing your thoughts.”
Mr Lewis himself has been through the mill with bovine TB, having lost a quarter of his milking herd – 78 of his best and most productive cows – to the disease more than three years ago.
The timing could not have been worse as Roger and his parents, Philip and Sheila, were in the process of installing a 40-point rotary milking parlour.
