Exploring opportunities for farmers in Wales to produce foods for future markets

This event has ended.

You are invited to join us for presentation and discussion of the findings of this project. Over the past year researchers from Cardiff University have been considering what it would mean for farmers in Wales to produce more plant foods. Changing diets and pressure to reduce impacts from livestock present challenges for many Welsh farmers. But these changes also present opportunities. Who might produce cereals, legumes, fruit, vegetables or nuts? How could transitions into these markets be enabled? 

This research explored farmers’ concerns and interests regarding opportunities to diversify production in response to demands for more UK-grown plant-based foods. The seminar will be an opportunity to learn about the findings and hear perspectives from farmers and others involved in the project.  

The seminar will be held via Zoom on April 27 10.30am-12pm
