-What does it mean for farmers? | 0:00:17 | 0:00:20 | |
-I'll be asking the Cabinet Secretary -for Environment and Rural Affairs... | 0:00:30 | 0:00:35 | |
-..Lesley Griffiths, about the plan. | 0:00:35 | 0:00:38 | |

-Alun visits one family hoping to see -a rise in popularity for goat meat. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:52 | |
-The Welsh Government published its -TB eradication plan nine years ago. | 0:00:58 | 0:01:03 | |
-Since then, -we've had numerous updates. | 0:01:03 | 0:01:06 | |
-How effective -has the Government's efforts been? | 0:01:06 | 0:01:10 | |
-The disease continues -to destroy lives and businesses. | 0:01:10 | 0:01:15 | |
-The level of TB in Wales -has remained constant. | 0:01:16 | 0:01:20 | |
-There's been a reduction -in the number of herds affected... | 0:01:20 | 0:01:24 | |
-..since 2012, but the number -of cattle killed in the past year... | 0:01:24 | 0:01:29 | |
-..is 22% higher -than the previous year. | 0:01:30 | 0:01:33 | |
-Following hours of debate -in the National Assembly... | 0:01:33 | 0:01:37 | |
-..what are their plans -to tackle the problem? | 0:01:37 | 0:01:40 | |
-We'll start those action plans and -that will be part of the process. | 0:01:41 | 0:01:45 | |
-It's important we have -an eradication programme. | 0:01:45 | 0:01:48 | |
-We want a TB-free Wales. | 0:01:48 | 0:01:50 | |
-I went out to consultation -following a statement last October. | 0:01:50 | 0:01:53 | |
-One area we're taking forward -is the regionalisation approach. | 0:01:53 | 0:01:58 | |
-Many people wanted that, -some people didn't. | 0:01:58 | 0:02:01 | |
-I think it's the right approach. | 0:02:01 | 0:02:03 | |
-The low incidents area -will be able to declare TB free... | 0:02:03 | 0:02:07 | |
-..in the short term. | 0:02:07 | 0:02:09 | |
-That will send out -a positive message. | 0:02:09 | 0:02:12 | |
-There will be farmers who won't -have had TB. Is it fair for them? | 0:02:12 | 0:02:16 | |
-That's something -we would have to monitor. | 0:02:16 | 0:02:19 | |
-We looked at whether we should have -an annual delivery plan. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:24 | |
-I think the delivery plan -should be flexible... | 0:02:24 | 0:02:27 | |
-..and something -we monitor carefully. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:30 | |
-If that is the case, -we can react to it. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
-Looking at the cap of 5,000 -in compensation per animal... | 0:02:32 | 0:02:36 | |
-..this will have a dramatic effect -on pedigree herds. | 0:02:36 | 0:02:40 | |
-We looked at the difference it would -have made on last year's figures. | 0:02:40 | 0:02:45 | |
-It would have affected 1% -of the compensation. | 0:02:45 | 0:02:49 | |
-We have to do something -to save funding. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:51 | |
-Some of our funding budget -comes from the EU. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:54 | |
-We won't have that -in a few years' time. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:57 | |
-If people are concerned -about pedigree cattle... | 0:02:57 | 0:03:01 | |
-..they can insure them and -I know it's at a very early stage... | 0:03:01 | 0:03:04 | |
-..but that's something -they can look at. | 0:03:05 | 0:03:07 | |
-Following today's announcement... | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
-..what are the views of the unions -about the Government's plans? | 0:03:10 | 0:03:15 | |
-They have listened -to what we asked them to do. | 0:03:15 | 0:03:18 | |
-That's something we welcome. | 0:03:18 | 0:03:20 | |
-One of the main points -they changed... | 0:03:21 | 0:03:23 | |
-..is stopping testing cattle -every six months. | 0:03:23 | 0:03:27 | |
-They haven't moved the threshold -for inconclusive reactors. | 0:03:27 | 0:03:32 | |
-They won't take more cattle - -that was their original intention... | 0:03:32 | 0:03:37 | |
-..or part of their consultation. | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
-What changes will affect farmers? | 0:03:40 | 0:03:42 | |
-They will now be splitting Wales -into five regional areas. | 0:03:43 | 0:03:48 | |
-Farmers in areas with -very little TB, in North Wales... | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
-..must test animals -after moving them in to the area. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:59 | |
-That will incur extra costs -for them... | 0:03:59 | 0:04:01 | |
-..and they will be less inclined -to buy those animals. | 0:04:02 | 0:04:06 | |
-It's going to create two markets -in Wales... | 0:04:06 | 0:04:10 | |
-..and that'll be a concern not only -for farmers buying animals in... | 0:04:10 | 0:04:15 | |
-..but also for farmers in areas -where TB is present. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:20 | |
-Their prices are likely to fall -and that will be a concern for them. | 0:04:20 | 0:04:26 | |
-We welcome the fact they will look -at badgers on the worst farms... | 0:04:27 | 0:04:33 | |
-..the farms that have been affected -for two years or more. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
-It's a small step but a step -in the right direction for us. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:42 | |
-They could have done more sooner but -let's take it one step at a time. | 0:04:43 | 0:04:47 | |
-What's your response to the areas -that have been created... | 0:04:47 | 0:04:52 | |
-..and the rules that come with them? | 0:04:52 | 0:04:55 | |
-On Anglesey and in nearby areas, -they don't have a problem. | 0:04:55 | 0:05:00 | |
-They've tightened the rules -in those areas. | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
-We welcome that. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:05 | |
-It's difficult. I live in an area -where I milk cattle. | 0:05:06 | 0:05:11 | |
-I don't sell them -so it's had little effect. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:15 | |
-Where there are store cattle... | 0:05:15 | 0:05:18 | |
-..the prices of those animals -could be affected. | 0:05:18 | 0:05:22 | |
-That's the problem. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:24 | |
-I don't welcome that aspect -but there is a way to make it work. | 0:05:25 | 0:05:30 | |
-We can't continue with high-affected -and low-affected areas... | 0:05:31 | 0:05:36 | |
-..in the long term. | 0:05:36 | 0:05:38 | |
-I hope they can implement this plan -fairly quickly... | 0:05:38 | 0:05:43 | |
-..to eradicate it quickly. | 0:05:44 | 0:05:46 | |
-That's what I'd like. We don't want -these regulations forever. | 0:05:46 | 0:05:50 | |
-Christianne Glossop, -Wales' chief veterinary officer... | 0:05:54 | 0:05:58 | |
-..played a key part -in the consultation. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:02 | |
-With regards to our chronic -TB breakdowns... | 0:06:02 | 0:06:04 | |
-..those that have been on the go -for more than 18 months... | 0:06:04 | 0:06:08 | |
-..and we have between -50 and 60 of those... | 0:06:08 | 0:06:10 | |
-..each of those -will have an action plan... | 0:06:11 | 0:06:13 | |
-..developed between the -Animal and Plant Health Agency... | 0:06:13 | 0:06:18 | |
-..Welsh Government -and their own vets... | 0:06:18 | 0:06:20 | |
-..and on the farms where we -can demonstrate badger activity... | 0:06:21 | 0:06:25 | |
-..we will cage trap badgers -and test them for TB. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
-Where we find -test-positive badgers... | 0:06:29 | 0:06:32 | |
-..we will be humanely killing -those badgers. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:35 | |
-Why don't you follow -the Republic of Ireland... | 0:06:35 | 0:06:38 | |
-..who have done a badger cull -on a wider scale... | 0:06:38 | 0:06:41 | |
-..and reduced TB incidents by 40%? | 0:06:41 | 0:06:43 | |
-That was in certain areas -of the Republic of Ireland. | 0:06:44 | 0:06:47 | |
-They are regrouping -to consider their next steps. | 0:06:48 | 0:06:51 | |
-We don't believe -that's necessary in Wales. | 0:06:51 | 0:06:55 | |
-Our badger survey has shown us -where we have infected badgers. | 0:06:55 | 0:06:59 | |
-The problem of TB -and the connection with badgers... | 0:06:59 | 0:07:03 | |
-..is most significant -in our chronic herd breakdowns. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:07 | |
-We want to adopt -a different approach. | 0:07:07 | 0:07:09 | |
-There are big concerns -about badgers. | 0:07:12 | 0:07:15 | |
-Are the steps they're taking -with badgers going far enough? | 0:07:15 | 0:07:19 | |
-Are they taking it seriously -or are they merely symbolic steps? | 0:07:20 | 0:07:24 | |
-Initially, only a handful of farms -will receive this treatment... | 0:07:25 | 0:07:30 | |
-..in terms of testing the badgers. | 0:07:31 | 0:07:33 | |
-There is more work to do -in recording the evidence... | 0:07:33 | 0:07:36 | |
-..to allow us -to take the next steps. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:39 | |
-We regularly feature farms -adopting milking systems... | 0:07:47 | 0:07:51 | |
-..similar to ones in New Zealand -but what about their sheep systems? | 0:07:51 | 0:07:56 | |
-Coed Coch Farm near Abergele -is experimenting. | 0:07:56 | 0:08:00 | |
-They've established a share farm -with a large flock of Romneys. | 0:08:00 | 0:08:06 | |
-Daloni has more on this story. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:08 | |
-Last October, -Coed Coch Farms Ltd was established. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:19 | |
-It's a share farming partnership -between three farmers... | 0:08:19 | 0:08:24 | |
-..Rhys Williams, Harry -Fetherstonhaugh and Emyr Jones. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:29 | |
-Harry owns the land - 900 acres. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:36 | |
-He has 50% of the company's shares. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:39 | |
-Emyr is the shepherd -and he has 5% of the shares. | 0:08:40 | 0:08:45 | |
-Administrator Rhys owns -the remainder of the shares, 45%. | 0:08:45 | 0:08:51 | |
-The enterprise was his idea. | 0:08:51 | 0:08:54 | |
-I had a relatively small business -at home on the Llyn Peninsula. | 0:08:54 | 0:08:58 | |
-I was looking for a way -to expand the sheep business. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:04 | |
-One of the possibilities -I researched was share farms. | 0:09:04 | 0:09:08 | |
-Why Romney sheep? | 0:09:09 | 0:09:11 | |
-We're very aware of the challenges -facing the industry. | 0:09:11 | 0:09:15 | |
-New Zealand faced -the same situation in the 1980s. | 0:09:15 | 0:09:19 | |
-The subsidies disappeared -practically overnight. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:23 | |
-They developed a breed -which was sustainable. | 0:09:23 | 0:09:26 | |
-Rhys is also the Head of Farming -at Coleg Glynllifon. | 0:09:27 | 0:09:30 | |
-He's eager to encourage and invest -in the future of young farmers. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:36 | |
-If you can get farmers -to buy into the system... | 0:09:36 | 0:09:39 | |
-..they will be more enthusiastic -and businesses will succeed better. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:44 | |
-Having young blood also helps. | 0:09:44 | 0:09:46 | |
-Our aim is not only to grow a -business but to help young farmers. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:52 | |
-Initially, we've brought Emyr in. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:55 | |
-As the company grows and develops... | 0:09:57 | 0:10:00 | |
-..Emyr will have the opportunity -to increase his share in the farm. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:04 | |
-How's it going so far, Emyr? | 0:10:06 | 0:10:08 | |
-How's it going so far, Emyr? - -It's going well. | 0:10:08 | 0:10:09 | |
-We've faced a few challenges -in the first few months... | 0:10:10 | 0:10:13 | |
-..but things are starting -to settle down now. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:16 | |
-We've had a very good season. | 0:10:18 | 0:10:20 | |
-I hope they'll hit the targets. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
-What kind of sheep is the Romney? | 0:10:23 | 0:10:25 | |
-It's a different sheep to the ones -I'm used to handling. | 0:10:25 | 0:10:30 | |
-It's not dissimilar -to a Welsh sheep. | 0:10:30 | 0:10:33 | |
-It's larger and looks after itself. | 0:10:33 | 0:10:36 | |
-And eats less. | 0:10:36 | 0:10:38 | |
-I don't know about eating less... | 0:10:38 | 0:10:41 | |
-..but it makes better use -of what's in front of it. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:44 | |
-It eats everything -that's on its plate. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:47 | |
-Yes, I'd like to think so, -and turn that into milk. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:53 | |
-The system as it is now -is very tight. | 0:10:56 | 0:11:00 | |
-Lambing in early April -and weaning by August 1. | 0:11:00 | 0:11:03 | |
-It's hoped that the lambs -will reach 40kgs... | 0:11:03 | 0:11:07 | |
-..before heading to the abattoir -with about 20kgs used as meat. | 0:11:07 | 0:11:12 | |
-Everything heading to market has -to be sold by the end of September. | 0:11:12 | 0:11:17 | |
-That is when -the farm's financial year ends. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:20 | |
-We're trying to control costs... | 0:11:20 | 0:11:22 | |
-..and concentrates -is one of the main costs. | 0:11:22 | 0:11:25 | |
-We have a tight budget -for concentrates this year. | 0:11:25 | 0:11:29 | |
-We budgeted 2 per sheep and -only spent 1.80 on concentrates. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:35 | |
-How has the lambing season been? | 0:11:35 | 0:11:38 | |
-The weather for lambing season -couldn't have been better. | 0:11:38 | 0:11:42 | |
-The weather was fantastic... | 0:11:42 | 0:11:44 | |
-..but it will be difficult for us to -show a profit to reinvest this year. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:52 | |
-Our scanning wasn't as good as -we wanted, it was under our target. | 0:11:52 | 0:11:58 | |
-From 2,300 sheep, -how many lambs did you have? | 0:11:58 | 0:12:02 | |
-We were fortunate enough -to sell 2,800. | 0:12:02 | 0:12:07 | |
-That's quite low. | 0:12:08 | 0:12:10 | |
-We'd budgeted to sell 125%. | 0:12:10 | 0:12:14 | |
-We scanned at 141%... | 0:12:14 | 0:12:16 | |
-..and from the research work I did -with the New Zealand systems... | 0:12:17 | 0:12:22 | |
-..you should expect a fall between -scanning and selling of 30%. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:28 | |
-We've docked the sheep's tails -recently to get the tailing count. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:32 | |
-We're down about 24%. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:35 | |
-The company received -a 3,000 Farming Connect grant... | 0:12:35 | 0:12:38 | |
-..to help draw up the contract -between the partners. | 0:12:39 | 0:12:42 | |
-They also organised for -Murray Rohloff from New Zealand... | 0:12:42 | 0:12:47 | |
-..to visit Coed Coch -to offer advice to the farmers. | 0:12:47 | 0:12:51 | |
-When we went through -our big economic revolution... | 0:12:51 | 0:12:55 | |
-..in New Zealand, where 40% of -our government money disappeared... | 0:12:55 | 0:13:01 | |
-..and then we realised that we had -to have money in the bank to use... | 0:13:01 | 0:13:06 | |
-..it's not just looking -at overall wealth accumulation. | 0:13:06 | 0:13:11 | |
-We had to be generating cash -because no-one owed us a living. | 0:13:11 | 0:13:15 | |
-It all came back down to profit. | 0:13:15 | 0:13:17 | |
-Some wise guy said -income is vanity, profit is sanity. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:21 | |
-I still say -that's the wisest thing I've heard. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:24 | |
-With such -an uncertain future ahead... | 0:13:27 | 0:13:30 | |
-..will a system like this -survive and pay its way? | 0:13:30 | 0:13:35 | |
-The existing farm -wasn't making any money. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:38 | |
-It couldn't go on. I was looking -for a vehicle to go forward. | 0:13:39 | 0:13:44 | |
-I'm in my 60s -and we need younger blood. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:46 | |
-It's turned out to be -an absolutely fantastic recipe. | 0:13:47 | 0:13:50 | |
-It's great to see two young people -involved in the business. | 0:13:51 | 0:13:54 | |
-The system's working well -and I'm absolutely thrilled with it. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:59 | |
-With the sheep market -as it is right now... | 0:14:06 | 0:14:09 | |
-..it's difficult knowing how -successful this enterprise will be. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:14 | |
-They don't have any control -over the price of lambs. | 0:14:14 | 0:14:17 | |
-They have to accept -what they're offered. | 0:14:17 | 0:14:20 | |
-Dairy farmers receive a cheque -once a month... | 0:14:20 | 0:14:23 | |
-..but here, -they receive payment annually. | 0:14:24 | 0:14:27 | |
-However, they have tight controls. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:29 | |
-Their costs are low -and they do that without a subsidy. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:34 | |
-Maybe this is the way forward. | 0:14:35 | 0:14:37 | |
-Best of luck to them. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:46 | |
-It's time for a break. | 0:14:47 | 0:14:49 | |
-Later, Alun joins a young couple -who make a living from goat meat. | 0:14:49 | 0:14:53 | |
-We'll see you in two minutes. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:57 | |

-Goat meat is very popular -across the world. | 0:15:08 | 0:15:12 | |
-Having said that, only a small -proportion is eaten in Wales. | 0:15:12 | 0:15:17 | |
-A Pembrokeshire family has realised -there is a profitable market for it. | 0:15:17 | 0:15:22 | |
-As a result, they've decided -to expand their business. | 0:15:22 | 0:15:26 | |
-Alun went to meet them. | 0:15:26 | 0:15:29 | |
-Back in November 2015, Megan and -Damian McNamara bought two goats... | 0:15:35 | 0:15:41 | |
-..to keep as pets. | 0:15:41 | 0:15:43 | |
-They now have 200 goats. | 0:15:43 | 0:15:45 | |
-Former nurse Megan -has left her profession... | 0:15:45 | 0:15:50 | |
-..to concentrate -on rearing the goats. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:53 | |
-This is their first year -selling the meat... | 0:15:55 | 0:15:57 | |
-..and business -is exceptionally good. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:00 | |
-It's been so good, they've struggled -to cope with the demand. | 0:16:00 | 0:16:04 | |
-They keep Boer goats at -Moat Village Farm near Maenclochog. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:11 | |
-They are the best -for producing high quality meat. | 0:16:11 | 0:16:14 | |
-Megan, it's your mother's farm... | 0:16:17 | 0:16:21 | |
-..but why did you decide -to keep goats on the farm? | 0:16:22 | 0:16:26 | |
-I've wanted goats here since I was -so high but Mam doesn't like them. | 0:16:26 | 0:16:30 | |
-She kept saying, "No, I don't -want them on the farm"... | 0:16:31 | 0:16:36 | |
-..so it's been almost a rebellion -to get them here. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:41 | |
-When we bought the first two... | 0:16:41 | 0:16:43 | |
-..Damian said the plan was for him -to go in a see Jude, Mam... | 0:16:43 | 0:16:48 | |
-..and say he was buying the first -two for me as Christmas gifts. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:53 | |
-She agreed. That's when -Myrtle and Olive came here. | 0:16:53 | 0:16:58 | |
-Mam helps out a lot, -there's a lot of support here... | 0:16:58 | 0:17:02 | |
-..but it's our business. | 0:17:02 | 0:17:04 | |
-What challenges do you face? -Is it the same as keeping sheep? | 0:17:04 | 0:17:10 | |
-Worms is the greatest problem. | 0:17:10 | 0:17:13 | |
-When they graze out here, -we have to do rotational grazing. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:19 | |
-I regularly do faecal egg counts. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:22 | |
-Listeria is also a problem. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:25 | |
-To try and overcome that, -we do all the haylage here. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:30 | |
-We triple rap it and add additives -and we trap moles... | 0:17:30 | 0:17:35 | |
-..just to try and get it top notch. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:38 | |
-I didn't realise -they were such sensitive animals. | 0:17:38 | 0:17:42 | |
-They are very sensitive. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:43 | |
-How do you keep them? -They're grazing right now. | 0:17:44 | 0:17:47 | |
-Are they mostly out in the fields -or do you have to keep them indoors? | 0:17:47 | 0:17:52 | |
-We have to keep them in. | 0:17:52 | 0:17:54 | |
-They don't like rain -so they need 24/7 shelter. | 0:17:54 | 0:17:59 | |
-That's difficult -with this number of goats. | 0:17:59 | 0:18:02 | |
-We do keep them in -during the winter. | 0:18:02 | 0:18:05 | |
-They just came back out last week. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
-With sheep, -the males are sent to be eaten... | 0:18:08 | 0:18:14 | |
-..whilst growing the numbers -of ewes. | 0:18:14 | 0:18:17 | |
-At the moment, all the females -are kept here to build the flock. | 0:18:17 | 0:18:21 | |
-The males are sent away for meat. | 0:18:22 | 0:18:24 | |
-We regularly weigh them -and then send the males. | 0:18:24 | 0:18:28 | |
-How old are they when they go away? | 0:18:28 | 0:18:30 | |
-It depends. We send them away -when they're 40kgs. | 0:18:30 | 0:18:34 | |
-That's from five months -but before twelve months. | 0:18:34 | 0:18:39 | |
-Interesting, Megan. -What happens here? | 0:18:46 | 0:18:49 | |
-These are the meat boys. -These are all up to weight. | 0:18:49 | 0:18:53 | |
-They're all 40kgs. | 0:18:54 | 0:18:55 | |
-This side, -these are slightly younger. | 0:18:56 | 0:19:01 | |
-They're about 25-30kgs, maybe more. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:04 | |
-40kgs is the target. -How much meat is produced? | 0:19:06 | 0:19:09 | |
-About 48%. The carcass is 18-20kgs. | 0:19:10 | 0:19:16 | |
-What is the value of a kilo for you? | 0:19:18 | 0:19:21 | |
-About 9 a kilo, just chopped up, -all the carcass. | 0:19:22 | 0:19:29 | |
-It costs more to buy cutlets -or a joint... | 0:19:30 | 0:19:34 | |
-..up to about 20 a kilo. | 0:19:34 | 0:19:36 | |
-One goat is quite valuable -when you sell it from home. | 0:19:37 | 0:19:41 | |
-We can get up to 200 per goat, -each and every goat. | 0:19:42 | 0:19:46 | |
-I'll have to move the bag - they're -about to mug me for the cake! | 0:19:46 | 0:19:51 | |
-There we go, thank you, lads! | 0:19:52 | 0:19:56 | |
-Give me some room -to feed the goats next door. | 0:19:56 | 0:19:59 | |
-They need it more than you. | 0:19:59 | 0:20:01 | |
-You've grown enough. | 0:20:02 | 0:20:03 | |
-So, the next question is -what about the billy goats? | 0:20:11 | 0:20:15 | |
-How many do you keep -for the 70 nanny goats? | 0:20:15 | 0:20:19 | |
-We have four billy goats -for the 100 nanny goats. | 0:20:19 | 0:20:22 | |
-Those are the companions. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:25 | |
-These are the animals -we invest the most in... | 0:20:27 | 0:20:31 | |
-..to get the genetics. | 0:20:32 | 0:20:34 | |
-Where do you get that genetic? Is -it easy finding something different? | 0:20:34 | 0:20:39 | |
-There can't be many -throughout Britain. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:42 | |
-It's quite difficult. Basil -came from Australia as an embryo. | 0:20:42 | 0:20:46 | |
-Here's Prince. He came from Suffolk. | 0:20:46 | 0:20:49 | |
-I think Prince is a first -generation embryo from Australia. | 0:20:49 | 0:20:54 | |
-For us, here, we choose a billy goat -with a short backside and body. | 0:20:54 | 0:21:00 | |
-That's what sells well for us. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
-Here's Prince. | 0:21:04 | 0:21:06 | |
-When you buy an animal like Prince -how much money do you need? | 0:21:06 | 0:21:12 | |
-About 600. | 0:21:12 | 0:21:14 | |
-Doing everything as locally -as possible is important to Megan. | 0:21:17 | 0:21:22 | |
-The abattoir is Maddocks in Maesteg. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:25 | |
-Cig Lodor in Rosebush -cuts the carcass. | 0:21:26 | 0:21:29 | |
-The meat is sold directly -from the farm. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:33 | |
-While the meat cooks on the barbie, -I'll have a quick word with you... | 0:21:35 | 0:21:40 | |
-..as the partner in crime -in this development. | 0:21:40 | 0:21:43 | |
-You're foodies as much as anything. | 0:21:44 | 0:21:46 | |
-Food is very important to you, -I can sense that. | 0:21:46 | 0:21:50 | |
-Yes, I was brought up on a farm -and I always want fresh meat. | 0:21:50 | 0:21:54 | |
-It's something we decided, -that's where we want to go. | 0:21:54 | 0:21:59 | |
-Megan, you used to work as a nurse. | 0:22:00 | 0:22:04 | |
-This is more than just a trade. | 0:22:04 | 0:22:06 | |
-This is my life now. -It all comes from the heart. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:11 | |
-You've seen the goats, -they're full of mischief. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:15 | |
-The only thing left to do for me, -who's never eaten goat meat... | 0:22:15 | 0:22:21 | |
-..is to see what it tastes like. | 0:22:21 | 0:22:24 | |
-Chef, are you serving? | 0:22:24 | 0:22:26 | |
-Just about ready. | 0:22:26 | 0:22:28 | |
-Wow. Let's taste it. | 0:22:32 | 0:22:35 | |
-Cheers, folks. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:37 | |
-It doesn't smell -anything like I thought it would. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:43 | |
-We have an idea about the smell of -goat meat and it's nothing like it. | 0:22:44 | 0:22:48 | |
-You told me before -that it was sweet. | 0:22:52 | 0:22:54 | |
-It's very similar to a mountain ewe. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:58 | |
-That's my favourite meat. | 0:22:58 | 0:23:00 | |
-There's something -very healthy about it. Lovely. | 0:23:03 | 0:23:06 | |
-Congratulations. -You've found something unique. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:14 | |
-The market is sure to grow -in the future. | 0:23:15 | 0:23:18 | |
-I hope so. Thank you. | 0:23:18 | 0:23:20 | |
-That's it for this week, -from Cardiff Bay. | 0:23:27 | 0:23:30 | |
-Thanks for your company. Cheerio. | 0:23:30 | 0:23:33 | |
