-Will Brexit destroy -the organic sector? | 0:00:06 | 0:00:09 | |
-I trust this sector -more than the conventional sector. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:15 | |
-Also on the programme, -a bad year for sheep farmers... | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
-..as fluke spreads -through their flocks. | 0:00:19 | 0:00:22 | |
-Once a sheep gets fluke, -there's no recovery. | 0:00:22 | 0:00:25 | |
-Work experience for two students. | 0:00:26 | 0:00:28 | |
-Huw and Wil have benefited -from an exciting opportunity... | 0:00:29 | 0:00:34 | |
-..with a Swedish company. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:38 | |
-It's been exceptionally wet since -last summer and generally mild. | 0:00:43 | 0:00:49 | |
-Perfect conditions for the mud -snail, the key host for liver fluke. | 0:00:49 | 0:00:56 | |
-The end result -is infection in sheep. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:59 | |
-Liver fluke in sheep -is an increasing problem. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:04 | |
-Scientific models suggest -that Wales is a region... | 0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | |
-..with one of the highest risks in -the European Union for liver fluke. | 0:01:09 | 0:01:14 | |
-One Welsh abattoir has noted... | 0:01:14 | 0:01:16 | |
-..that the number of infected sheep -has risen almost 3% since last year. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:21 | |
-There's no simple answer -to the problem. | 0:01:22 | 0:01:24 | |
-Many flocks have developed -resistance to fluke treatments. | 0:01:25 | 0:01:30 | |
-Vet Dafydd Jones visits farms -to give advice on this matter. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:34 | |
-He works at the Ystwyth Vet Practice -in Aberystwyth. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:38 | |
-It affects sheep in one of two ways. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:41 | |
-The most severe form which causes -fatalities happens in the autumn. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:48 | |
-You'll find dead sheep -on the farm... | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
-..because of the effect the fluke -has on the liver. | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
-What can also happen, -which is a more long-term problem... | 0:01:54 | 0:01:59 | |
-..is sheep losing form. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:01 | |
-That tends to happen over -the winter months and into spring. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:06 | |
-Has this year been challenging -in terms of liver fluke? | 0:02:06 | 0:02:11 | |
-We're aware of some heavy losses -as a result of fluke. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:15 | |
-The losses are continuing now. -If we've looked for it, it's there. | 0:02:15 | 0:02:20 | |
-That's becoming a lot more common. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
-This is the worst year -I can remember. | 0:02:23 | 0:02:26 | |
-Hefin Hughes, Tynohir, -Derwenlas, near Aberystwyth... | 0:02:28 | 0:02:32 | |
-..has had to change his farming -methods because of this parasite. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:37 | |
-We've had to treat sheep -for fluke every year... | 0:02:37 | 0:02:40 | |
-..but we've kept on top of it. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:42 | |
-Three years ago, we felt -the losses were mounting up. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
-The scanning percentage -was falling... | 0:02:48 | 0:02:50 | |
-..and the condition -of the sheep was falling. | 0:02:51 | 0:02:53 | |
-We felt that we were dosing -for fluke more often... | 0:02:54 | 0:02:57 | |
-..over the last year and two years, -especially after the wet winters. | 0:02:57 | 0:03:02 | |
-Was this a problem -on a particular part of land... | 0:03:03 | 0:03:07 | |
-..or just a general problem -on the low lying areas? | 0:03:07 | 0:03:11 | |
-We had problem on some rented land. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:14 | |
-Crossbred sheep were grazing there -and they had the fluke problem. | 0:03:14 | 0:03:19 | |
-It was at its worst -in November, December and January. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:25 | |
-That's one of the reasons -we built this tunnel... | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
-..to store the crossbred sheep. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:32 | |
-We wanted to get them off the land -at the time of year fluke hit them. | 0:03:32 | 0:03:38 | |
-The sheep we were losing -were the sheep carrying twins... | 0:03:38 | 0:03:43 | |
-..and under most stress. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:45 | |
-The losses were getting worse -every year. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:49 | |
-We've stopped renting -that piece of land now. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
-The losses had become too much. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
-We were losing sheep... | 0:03:57 | 0:03:59 | |
-..but we were also losing sheep -who were carrying twins. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:06 | |
-Is there something farmers can do -to target infected land? | 0:04:16 | 0:04:20 | |
-Yes, and that's always -been discussed. | 0:04:21 | 0:04:24 | |
-It's easier said than done sometimes -with that. | 0:04:24 | 0:04:27 | |
-It makes sense to try -and avoid land with the most risk... | 0:04:28 | 0:04:32 | |
-..wetlands and bog land. | 0:04:32 | 0:04:34 | |
-If it's possible not to graze -sheep there in the autumn... | 0:04:34 | 0:04:39 | |
-..that will help, -but it's not always possible. | 0:04:39 | 0:04:43 | |
-The choices for treatment. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:46 | |
-Do we have to be careful -what products we use? | 0:04:46 | 0:04:50 | |
-Yes and no. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:52 | |
-The main treatment, triclabendazole, -is found in different products. | 0:04:52 | 0:04:57 | |
-That's one of the old doses, -it's been on the market for years. | 0:04:57 | 0:05:00 | |
-Unfortunately, it's become -less effective than it was... | 0:05:01 | 0:05:04 | |
-..to the extent that on some farms, -it doesn't work at all. | 0:05:05 | 0:05:09 | |
-The problem is that's the only one -that kills the small fluke... | 0:05:10 | 0:05:13 | |
-..during the autumn and that's -the fluke that causes fatalities. | 0:05:13 | 0:05:16 | |
-To treat the older fluke in spring, -there are half a dozen treatments. | 0:05:17 | 0:05:22 | |
-By checking which treatments -farmers have used over the years... | 0:05:22 | 0:05:28 | |
-..you can use different treatments -to make sure they're effective. | 0:05:28 | 0:05:32 | |
-The problem we're seeing right now -is the triclabendazole... | 0:05:33 | 0:05:37 | |
-..and we're seeing cases where -it hasn't worked during the autumn. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:41 | |
-You can use it at the right time -and only when you need to use it. | 0:05:41 | 0:05:45 | |
-Once it stops working, -it stops working. | 0:05:45 | 0:05:48 | |
-With all these challenges facing -him, how will Hefin arm himself... | 0:05:52 | 0:05:57 | |
-..to reduce the risk of liver fluke -in his flock? | 0:05:57 | 0:06:01 | |
-We've had some medical advice -but every farm is different. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:07 | |
-At the end of the day, -you have to do what suits your farm. | 0:06:08 | 0:06:12 | |
-We felt that we were dosing -more often... | 0:06:13 | 0:06:17 | |
-..and we'd changed -from one dose to a dose... | 0:06:17 | 0:06:21 | |
-..that only treated -the adult stage of the fluke... | 0:06:21 | 0:06:25 | |
-..and because it only treated -the adult stage... | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
-..we were dosing more often. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:31 | |
-We felt that if something -wasn't done... | 0:06:31 | 0:06:34 | |
-..we were dosing so often, we'd -create problems for ourselves... | 0:06:34 | 0:06:39 | |
-..in the long term. | 0:06:39 | 0:06:40 | |
-With any other illness, -sheep tend to recover. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:44 | |
-With sheep scab, -sheep will get over it. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:49 | |
-Once a sheep has fluke, -it never recovers. | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
-I can imagine that it causes a lot -of stress on top of everything else. | 0:06:52 | 0:06:56 | |
-It's added pressure for farmers. | 0:06:56 | 0:06:58 | |
-There's nothing worse than -looking after the sheep all year... | 0:06:59 | 0:07:02 | |
-..you've given them a ram and you've -looked after them all winter... | 0:07:02 | 0:07:06 | |
-..and when you're about a month -to six weeks before lambing... | 0:07:07 | 0:07:11 | |
-..you start to lose lambs -because of the fluke. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:15 | |
-You've looked after them all year -and then the fluke hits them. | 0:07:15 | 0:07:20 | |
-It's heart-breaking. | 0:07:20 | 0:07:21 | |
-The agricultural market -has been very unsettled recently. | 0:07:29 | 0:07:33 | |
-It's been a different story -for the organic sector. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:37 | |
-It's developed and grown -and for the sixth successive year... | 0:07:37 | 0:07:41 | |
-..there's been an increase in sales. | 0:07:42 | 0:07:44 | |
-The organic market is worth 2.2bn -a year to the United Kingdom. | 0:07:47 | 0:07:53 | |
-The number of organic farms in Wales -has remained settled for years. | 0:07:53 | 0:07:58 | |
-There are just over 500 of them -at the moment. | 0:07:58 | 0:08:02 | |
-Dafydd Owen is an organic farmer -and secretary of the Organic Forum. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:09 | |
-What we've seen -over the last 3-4 years... | 0:08:10 | 0:08:12 | |
-..is the value -of the British organic market... | 0:08:13 | 0:08:16 | |
-..returning to the level -it was at in 2008. | 0:08:16 | 0:08:19 | |
-That's interesting for two reasons. | 0:08:20 | 0:08:22 | |
-If you look at the organic market -in the context of ethical food... | 0:08:22 | 0:08:28 | |
-..such as Fair Trade -or RSPCA Freedom Foods... | 0:08:28 | 0:08:32 | |
-..the ethical food market -as a whole has continued to grow. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:37 | |
-It shows that customers -are happy to pay for something... | 0:08:37 | 0:08:41 | |
-..beyond the food itself. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:43 | |
-Something else that's interesting is -events in other parts of the world. | 0:08:43 | 0:08:49 | |
-The British market -grew 6-7% last year... | 0:08:50 | 0:08:53 | |
-..but in Europe, -it's growing twice as fast. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:57 | |
-In America it's 10% and in China, -it's half as much again. | 0:08:57 | 0:09:02 | |
-What do you think is the reason -behind this growth? | 0:09:02 | 0:09:06 | |
-We've had numerous food scares -to focus our minds. | 0:09:06 | 0:09:09 | |
-Attention is being given to how food -is produced and its traceability. | 0:09:10 | 0:09:14 | |
-The link between food and health -is more important to people. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:19 | |
-This is behind the rise -in the market as a whole. | 0:09:20 | 0:09:25 | |
-Great news for the organic sector. | 0:09:26 | 0:09:29 | |
-The produce is selling well -but is this reflected... | 0:09:30 | 0:09:34 | |
-..in the farmer's pocket? | 0:09:34 | 0:09:37 | |
-I produce organic lamb myself -and I do get a premium. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:41 | |
-If I could produce -the lamb earlier... | 0:09:42 | 0:09:44 | |
-..I could fetch another 25p/kilo. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:47 | |
-There have been benefits -in the milk sector... | 0:09:48 | 0:09:51 | |
-..but the milk sector as a whole has -struggled over the past two years. | 0:09:51 | 0:09:55 | |
-What's helped organic producers... | 0:09:55 | 0:09:59 | |
-..is the commitment from customers -to organic food and produce. | 0:09:59 | 0:10:05 | |
-For that reason, milk prices -for farmers have been stable. | 0:10:05 | 0:10:09 | |
-Dai Miles from Haverfordwest... | 0:10:12 | 0:10:14 | |
-..is an organic farmer and director -of Calon Wen dairy company. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:18 | |
-We've been very fortunate. | 0:10:19 | 0:10:22 | |
-There's less volatility -in the organic sector. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
-The price has dropped a little -like everything else in the market. | 0:10:26 | 0:10:30 | |
-The key is supply and demand. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:32 | |
-When I started, the price was -about 28p. It went down to 23/24p. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:38 | |
-It's back up today to 38-40p. | 0:10:38 | 0:10:41 | |
-That makes business easier, -you can plan better. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
-Our costs are different, -our stocking rate is different. | 0:10:46 | 0:10:50 | |
-It's not always great but we're -fortunate in the organic sector... | 0:10:50 | 0:10:55 | |
-..that supply and demand -is a lot more even... | 0:10:55 | 0:10:58 | |
-..than it is -in the conventional sector. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:01 | |
-The organic market dipped -between 2006 and 2008. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:07 | |
-Since then, we've regained -the ground we lost... | 0:11:08 | 0:11:12 | |
-..and it's still growing. | 0:11:12 | 0:11:16 | |
-As a business, Calon Wen has seen -an increase of 18% in our produce... | 0:11:16 | 0:11:22 | |
-..on the branded side. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:24 | |
-Gerald Miles grows vegetables -and keeps cattle, sheep and pigs. | 0:11:26 | 0:11:31 | |
-In St David's -he has set up a community... | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
-..for local organic farmers. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:37 | |
-We have five acres -and two polytunnels. | 0:11:37 | 0:11:41 | |
-We have 60 families on board. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:46 | |
-They receive vegetables every week. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:49 | |
-People buying from us do so because -they are concerned about health... | 0:11:49 | 0:11:54 | |
-..and what creates good health. | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
-More research -is published every year... | 0:11:57 | 0:12:01 | |
-..about the effects of chemicals -in our food. | 0:12:01 | 0:12:05 | |
-One thing I want to create -on this farm... | 0:12:06 | 0:12:10 | |
-..is CSA out of the beef cattle -we rear here. | 0:12:11 | 0:12:16 | |
-I've seen it done in France. | 0:12:17 | 0:12:21 | |
-The families -buy the calves together. | 0:12:21 | 0:12:27 | |
-They help by paying the -maintenance costs of the animal... | 0:12:27 | 0:12:33 | |
-..until it's served on a plate. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
-Then they share the meat afterwards. | 0:12:36 | 0:12:38 | |
-The French respect their food -a lot more. | 0:12:40 | 0:12:44 | |
-We need to bring respect -back to farming... | 0:12:46 | 0:12:50 | |
-..and bring respect back to food. | 0:12:51 | 0:12:53 | |
-Now is the time. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:55 | |
-That's the success of the organic -sector but what of the future... | 0:12:58 | 0:13:03 | |
-..and the Brexit effect? | 0:13:03 | 0:13:05 | |
-This, and two students learning -about farming methods in Europe... | 0:13:05 | 0:13:10 | |
-..coming up after the break. | 0:13:10 | 0:13:12 | |

-In Part 1, we heard about the growth -of the organic sector in Wales. | 0:13:27 | 0:13:31 | |
-It's worth 2.2bn -to the British economy. | 0:13:31 | 0:13:34 | |
-In European countries, -the sector is even larger. | 0:13:34 | 0:13:38 | |
-It's worth 33.5bn Euros. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:41 | |
-With a year left before we leave -the European Union... | 0:13:41 | 0:13:45 | |
-..how do farmers feel -about the future? | 0:13:45 | 0:13:48 | |
-Can they see opportunities? | 0:13:48 | 0:13:50 | |
-Here's dairy farmer Dai Miles. | 0:13:50 | 0:13:53 | |
-How do you foresee the organic -sector working after Brexit? | 0:13:54 | 0:13:58 | |
-I don't have a crystal ball, -I don't know the answer. | 0:13:59 | 0:14:02 | |
-I don't think anyone knows. | 0:14:02 | 0:14:04 | |
-From what I can see -and what I read... | 0:14:04 | 0:14:07 | |
-..the dairy sector as a whole -will come out of this the best. | 0:14:08 | 0:14:13 | |
-Dafydd Owen is more cautious. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
-Looking forward, what are -your concerns for the sector? | 0:14:18 | 0:14:22 | |
-There are two elements, -one is the market. | 0:14:22 | 0:14:25 | |
-I think we have to work on the basis -that agreement will be made... | 0:14:25 | 0:14:29 | |
-..and we'll continue -to trade with Europe. | 0:14:29 | 0:14:32 | |
-The other element is support. | 0:14:32 | 0:14:34 | |
-If there's no support -or a rise in the market price... | 0:14:35 | 0:14:38 | |
-..I'll have to think hard -about what I'll do in 2020. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:42 | |
-I'll remain organic for at least -a year in 2020 to see what happens. | 0:14:42 | 0:14:47 | |
-After that, -we'll need to see some light. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:52 | |
-Gerald Miles, an organic farmer -for the past 20 years... | 0:14:54 | 0:14:58 | |
-..has a very different vision. | 0:14:58 | 0:15:00 | |
-I trust this sector more than -the conventional sector. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:05 | |
-The conventional sector -is increasingly standing still. | 0:15:05 | 0:15:13 | |
-It's killing itself. | 0:15:13 | 0:15:16 | |
-It's producing far too much -for the market... | 0:15:16 | 0:15:20 | |
-..and supermarkets have a free rein -to do as they wish. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:24 | |
-On the other hand, organic farming -won't progress in the same way. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:29 | |
-It's going to progress differently. | 0:15:31 | 0:15:33 | |
-Smaller farms will appear, -younger farmers will appear. | 0:15:33 | 0:15:37 | |
-That will create more of a local -market and that's the way forward. | 0:15:38 | 0:15:45 | |
-The organic sector will be reliant -on the country's economy. | 0:15:47 | 0:15:53 | |
-They'll hope for a strong economy. | 0:15:56 | 0:15:58 | |
-We don't import -much organic produce. | 0:15:59 | 0:16:01 | |
-I'm confident. | 0:16:02 | 0:16:03 | |
-I'm going to continue and grow. | 0:16:04 | 0:16:08 | |
-Many Welsh agriculture students are -on work experience across Britain. | 0:16:13 | 0:16:19 | |
-Two from Glynllifon have ventured -a little further. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:24 | |
-They've gone all the way to Sweden. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:27 | |
-Huw Owen and Wil Ifan Parry -are the two lucky students. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:34 | |
-They'll spend a month -on dairy farms in Sweden. | 0:16:34 | 0:16:38 | |
-Sweden is one -of the Scandinavian countries... | 0:16:38 | 0:16:42 | |

-In terms of agriculture, -forestry claims 69% of the land. | 0:16:49 | 0:16:53 | |
-Crop growing and cattle -are also important. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:57 | |
-Similar to Wales, -there are many family farms. | 0:16:57 | 0:17:01 | |
-The number of farms is falling -but the size of farms is increasing. | 0:17:01 | 0:17:05 | |
-The dairy industry has shrunk -over the last decade... | 0:17:05 | 0:17:09 | |
-..and there are concerns -about its future. | 0:17:09 | 0:17:12 | |

-The college farm has worked closely -with Viking Genetics UK. | 0:18:36 | 0:18:43 | |
-It's an international company. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
-That's where the link with -two dairy farms in Sweden started. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:53 | |
-It will be a great experience for -the brave souls heading to Sweden. | 0:18:53 | 0:18:58 | |
-Huw and Wil have benefited -from an exciting opportunity. | 0:18:58 | 0:19:04 | |

-..with the company -and with the farms in Sweden. | 0:19:09 | 0:19:14 | |
-This is an unique opportunity -for any young farmer. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:19 | |
-How were they chosen -in the first place? | 0:19:19 | 0:19:21 | |
-We had interviews with Rhodri, -the farm manager. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:26 | |
-He chose the best students -and I'm fortunate to be one of them. | 0:19:27 | 0:19:32 | |
-You're experienced with cattle. | 0:19:33 | 0:19:35 | |
-Do you have any experience -of the dairy sector? | 0:19:35 | 0:19:39 | |
-A little. -I work on a dairy farm up the road. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:43 | |
-That's a good experience. | 0:19:43 | 0:19:45 | |

-What can Wil Ifan expect -out in Sweden? | 0:19:53 | 0:19:57 | |
-Do you know what to expect -out there? | 0:19:57 | 0:20:00 | |
-I think most of the work -will involve milking. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:03 | |
-270 dairy cattle. | 0:20:04 | 0:20:07 | |
-250 sheep. | 0:20:11 | 0:20:13 | |

-I never took the opportunity -to gain this experience. | 0:20:24 | 0:20:27 | |
-It might have been a lack -of confidence on my part. | 0:20:27 | 0:20:31 | |
-He has enough confidence -to give it a go. | 0:20:31 | 0:20:34 | |
-Young people look -at these opportunities differently. | 0:20:34 | 0:20:37 | |
-The horizons are getting further -away and it's easier to go. | 0:20:37 | 0:20:43 | |
-They see things on Facebook -and they see these opportunities... | 0:20:44 | 0:20:49 | |
-..beyond the farm. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:51 | |
-They're making the most of it. | 0:20:51 | 0:20:54 | |

-I hope he'll see some new ideas -and different methods of farming. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:08 | |
-We might be too narrow-minded -sometimes... | 0:21:09 | 0:21:13 | |
-..and not open to new ideas. | 0:21:13 | 0:21:15 | |
-We don't really know what kind -of a place Sweden is for farming. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:20 | |
-Is it hot or cold? -What is the land like? | 0:21:20 | 0:21:23 | |

-Tudur, Wil Ifan's father, -can see the benefits. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:43 | |
-How will the boys benefit? | 0:21:43 | 0:21:45 | |
-It's an excellent opportunity -for students to build confidence... | 0:21:45 | 0:21:50 | |
-..and put the knowledge they gain -to work back here... | 0:21:50 | 0:21:54 | |
-..and use it practically -in the world of work. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:58 | |
-It's also a chance for them -to grow up. | 0:21:58 | 0:22:01 | |
-You've already been -on work experience. | 0:22:06 | 0:22:09 | |
-Did that change you as a student? | 0:22:09 | 0:22:12 | |
-Yes, I went to Glan Conwy last year, -to a dairy farm with 500 cattle. | 0:22:13 | 0:22:19 | |
-It was a huge change -compared to here. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:24 | |
-The scale of the stock, and -everything else, was much greater. | 0:22:24 | 0:22:30 | |
-I had to live with different people. | 0:22:30 | 0:22:32 | |
-What do you hope to gain -from this Swedish trip? | 0:22:33 | 0:22:36 | |

-Wil Ifan is looking to the future. | 0:22:56 | 0:22:58 | |
-What are the possible challenges -they face? | 0:22:59 | 0:23:02 | |

-It'll be a great experience -to see how they do it. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:13 | |
-You'll be a changed man -when you come home. | 0:23:13 | 0:23:17 | |
