0:00:18 > 0:00:20- Hello and welcome to the programme.

0:00:21 > 0:00:25- As you can see, I am among the - horses and tractors in Cardigan.

0:00:25 > 0:00:29- Traditionally on Barley Saturday, - farmers would meet up in the town...

0:00:29 > 0:00:33- ..to employ workers for the year - and to inspect stallions.

0:00:33 > 0:00:38- These days, it's the horses and - tractors which take centre stage.

0:00:38 > 0:00:43- Also on the programme, Daloni visits - a unique dairy farmer on Lleyn.

0:00:44 > 0:00:47- Originally from Manchester, - he turned his back on city life...

0:00:48 > 0:00:51- ..in order to make a living - from his love of farming.

0:00:51 > 0:00:53- This town is full of history.

0:00:53 > 0:00:55- Alun has also been here this week...

0:00:55 > 0:00:59- ..meeting the official vets - working at this event.

0:01:00 > 0:01:02- They have reached - a very special milestone.

0:01:05 > 0:01:10- Agriculture has experienced huge - challenges over the past 80 years.

0:01:10 > 0:01:13- However, Priory Vets - in the centre of Cardigan...

0:01:14 > 0:01:16- ..is a business - which has flourished...

0:01:16 > 0:01:19- ..and which continues to develop.

0:01:19 > 0:01:22- J E Thomas - was the founder back in 1935.

0:01:22 > 0:01:26- Here to tell the story - is his son, Richard Thomas.

0:01:27 > 0:01:30- He started in Newcastle Emlyn - next to the Red Cow.

0:01:30 > 0:01:32- The lads brought down the horses...

0:01:33 > 0:01:36- ..and had a couple of pints - while the animals were treated.

0:01:36 > 0:01:39- There were no dogs or cats - in those days.

0:01:39 > 0:01:41- Dogs were spayed on the farmyard.

0:01:41 > 0:01:43- The tom cat in a Wellington boot.

0:01:44 > 0:01:45- That's how it was.

0:01:46 > 0:01:48- He then came to Cardigan...

0:01:49 > 0:01:52- ..and rented a room at The Ship, - a tavern.

0:01:52 > 0:01:56- That's how he started in Cardigan.

0:01:56 > 0:02:01- He used to go out to heal, - like a paramedic.

0:02:01 > 0:02:05- These days, - they are so sophisticated...

0:02:05 > 0:02:09- ..they use preventative medicine.

0:02:09 > 0:02:12- They treat them - before anything goes wrong.

0:02:12 > 0:02:16- Some diseases back then - aren't around any more.

0:02:16 > 0:02:20- How long is it - since you passed the reins over?

0:02:21 > 0:02:22- At the millennium, in 1999.

0:02:22 > 0:02:27- I decided to go but I don't think - they've realised I've left yet!

0:02:29 > 0:02:32- There's nothing worse than - comparing how you used to do things.

0:02:33 > 0:02:35- It's constantly developing.

0:02:35 > 0:02:37- Edward's son has returned.

0:02:37 > 0:02:39- I had two children but no sons.

0:02:39 > 0:02:43- Edward is very lucky that his son - will follow in his footsteps.

0:02:43 > 0:02:46- I'm confident local boys will come.

0:02:52 > 0:02:55- These days, Edward and Ruth Jones - are in charge.

0:02:55 > 0:03:00- They own four different sites - - two in Cardigan, one in Aberaeron...

0:03:00 > 0:03:04- ..and they opened a new site - in Crymych in March.

0:03:04 > 0:03:10- Our practice - was historically a dairy practice.

0:03:11 > 0:03:14- I came to Cardigan in 1976.

0:03:15 > 0:03:20- That was 40 years ago and - there were six veterinarians here.

0:03:21 > 0:03:25- We all went out to the farms.

0:03:25 > 0:03:30- A sick dog - was a bit of a nuisance really.

0:03:31 > 0:03:35- You'd call in to see the dog - on the way to seeing another cow.

0:03:35 > 0:03:38- The cattle were paramount.

0:03:38 > 0:03:41- Things have changed entirely.

0:03:41 > 0:03:44- The pets are just as important now.

0:03:44 > 0:03:49- In 1976, we were six vets...

0:03:49 > 0:03:52- ..with two receptionists - here in Cardigan.

0:03:52 > 0:03:56- Last year, we were 14 vets...

0:03:56 > 0:04:01- ..with three more - testing exclusively for TB...

0:04:01 > 0:04:06- ..and six - devoted to doing cats and dogs.

0:04:06 > 0:04:09- The company - looks to be in safe hands...

0:04:09 > 0:04:14- ..as Edward and Ruth's son, George, - has become part of the venture.

0:04:14 > 0:04:19- I grew up watching Dad doing - caesareans in the dead of night.

0:04:21 > 0:04:25- It didn't necessarily - make me really want to be a vet...

0:04:26 > 0:04:30- ..but it was part - of my everyday life here.

0:04:31 > 0:04:35- I wanted to come back to this area - and I'm a people person.

0:04:36 > 0:04:41- I also wanted to work outside. - That was my ambition.

0:04:42 > 0:04:46- Some day, - you'll be the boss at this practice.

0:04:47 > 0:04:49- Does that appeal?

0:04:49 > 0:04:54- For my father, it's nice - that someone is coming through.

0:04:56 > 0:04:59- I'm happy living in this area...

0:04:59 > 0:05:04- ..and it'll be convenient - for me to take over some day.

0:05:10 > 0:05:15- It's clear that everyone here - at the practice is very content.

0:05:15 > 0:05:19- There are vets working here - from every corner of the globe.

0:05:22 > 0:05:24- We have some Welsh vets.

0:05:25 > 0:05:27- We also have English vets.

0:05:28 > 0:05:30- Two from Poland.

0:05:30 > 0:05:35- We have one that's just arrived - from the Netherlands.

0:05:36 > 0:05:39- We've had a vet from Portugal.

0:05:40 > 0:05:43- There's one from Norway.

0:05:44 > 0:05:49- We also have - a pet specialist from Germany.

0:05:49 > 0:05:54- What's your catchment area? - You're getting bigger all the time.

0:05:54 > 0:05:59- We're confined on one side - by the sea.

0:06:00 > 0:06:05- Our semi-circle of influence - extends almost down to Fishguard...

0:06:06 > 0:06:10- ..around to Crymych, - Trelech, Newcastle Emlyn...

0:06:10 > 0:06:12- ..and Llangrannog to the north.

0:06:16 > 0:06:18- Vets have no time to be idle...

0:06:18 > 0:06:23- ..rushing back and fore to treat - all creatures great and small.

0:06:23 > 0:06:27- However, as they celebrate 80 years - of existence as a company...

0:06:27 > 0:06:31- ..it's obvious that a solid - foundation was laid initially.

0:06:31 > 0:06:36- How pleased are you to be - a part of this family business?

0:06:36 > 0:06:40- It's nice to work with your parents. - They've taught me a lot.

0:06:40 > 0:06:44- Dad has instructed me - on how to be a vet.

0:06:45 > 0:06:50- It's great to have someone - you can consult with about things.

0:06:50 > 0:06:53- Do you get on well, Edward?

0:06:53 > 0:06:55- Is he a good worker?

0:06:55 > 0:07:00- We get on really well. - It's a two-way process not one way.

0:07:01 > 0:07:06- I'm learning new things and George - is picking up the stuff I know.

0:07:06 > 0:07:08- We need young blood.

0:07:08 > 0:07:14- There are only three or four - of the old boys left now.

0:07:15 > 0:07:19- We have a lot of youngsters - and they have good ideas.

0:07:20 > 0:07:23- We feed off each other.

0:07:32 > 0:07:37- Back here at Barley Saturday, there - are horses of every kind on show.

0:07:38 > 0:07:42- Getting them ready for - the competition ring is hard work.

0:07:42 > 0:07:46- Last week, - I visited Fronwen Farm, Llanarth...

0:07:46 > 0:07:51- ..to see exactly what it takes - to prepare for the big day.

0:07:56 > 0:07:59- After a bad accident on the farm, - Wyn and his wife...

0:08:00 > 0:08:03- ..decided to sell all the stock - and focus on horse breeding.

0:08:04 > 0:08:06- Horses have always been - in Wyn's blood.

0:08:06 > 0:08:10- As well as training them, - he's also a faithful supporter...

0:08:10 > 0:08:14- ..of Barley Saturday and the - Aberaeron Festival of Ponies & Cobs.

0:08:15 > 0:08:18- Take us back to the very start.

0:08:19 > 0:08:23- I was farming, building, - concreting and raising children.

0:08:23 > 0:08:25- But everything changed.

0:08:26 > 0:08:29- I was working on the slates - with a partner.

0:08:29 > 0:08:33- There was an accident - and I remember nothing else.

0:08:34 > 0:08:36- You remember it well.

0:08:37 > 0:08:38- I was there.

0:08:38 > 0:08:42- They were on the slates - and he fell 18 feet to the ground.

0:08:45 > 0:08:47- They didn't think he'd live.

0:08:47 > 0:08:52- The ambulance came. - They told me he died several times.

0:08:53 > 0:08:59- He's now relearnt - to walk, eat and write for himself.

0:09:00 > 0:09:02- He's still very good at maths.

0:09:03 > 0:09:04- No-one will con him!

0:09:05 > 0:09:06- No, they won't.

0:09:06 > 0:09:07- No, they won't.- - I don't have any money!

0:09:09 > 0:09:13- It also means - you've renewed your love of horses.

0:09:13 > 0:09:16- We had to sell all the sheep.

0:09:17 > 0:09:20- Wyn picked it up as a hobby - to get him out of the house.

0:09:21 > 0:09:25- Instead of sitting in a corner, - he went to see the mare.

0:09:26 > 0:09:30- Suddenly, there was fresh interest - and we bought a stallion.

0:09:30 > 0:09:31- You enjoy yourself with the horses.

0:09:31 > 0:09:33- You enjoy yourself with the horses.- - It's something to do.

0:09:34 > 0:09:36- It keeps me fit - with the riding and the hunts.

0:09:37 > 0:09:39- Breaking them in - and buying the odd one.

0:09:41 > 0:09:45- So the horses look their best - for the occasion...

0:09:46 > 0:09:48- ..they need a shampoo and set.

0:09:48 > 0:09:52- Wyn has plenty of friends - and family willing to help out.

0:09:53 > 0:09:56- Every hair - is then in the right place.

0:09:56 > 0:09:59- Your job is watching the boys work.

0:09:59 > 0:10:00- It's a change.

0:10:01 > 0:10:02- Why's that?

0:10:02 > 0:10:04- Why's that?- - I used to do the work.

0:10:05 > 0:10:11- How much of a thrill do you get - riding the cart around the ring?

0:10:16 > 0:10:19- It's like going through a big town.

0:10:20 > 0:10:24- There are thousands there - watching you.

0:10:24 > 0:10:26- More than the Royal Welsh.

0:10:29 > 0:10:31- Father called last night.

0:10:31 > 0:10:35- He said the mare was in the field - and she needed to be done up.

0:10:35 > 0:10:37- I thought it would be - a 15-minute job.

0:10:38 > 0:10:39- It's a bit longer today.

0:10:40 > 0:10:43- She'll have to be washed - tonight and tomorrow morning too.

0:10:43 > 0:10:46- You have to bear in mind - the time of year.

0:10:46 > 0:10:50- These animals haven't really emerged - from their wintering period yet.

0:10:51 > 0:10:56- They are losing their winter coats - and we'll have to brush that away.

0:10:56 > 0:11:00- It's a bit rough right now, but by - tomorrow morning, she'll be shining.

0:11:01 > 0:11:05- We'll go through town with everyone - clapping and him in the carriage.

0:11:05 > 0:11:06- Look out.

0:11:06 > 0:11:08- Look out.- - Yes, look out.

0:11:10 > 0:11:14- Wyn's interest in horses - started when he was a young lad.

0:11:14 > 0:11:20- One of his favourites these days is - the Andalusian stallion from Spain.

0:11:21 > 0:11:25- What's your secret? I hear you're - a dab hand at breaking in a horse.

0:11:27 > 0:11:28- I read his mind.

0:11:28 > 0:11:32- Breaking these animals in - is good for your health too.

0:11:32 > 0:11:35- I have tinnitus. - That's noise in the head.

0:11:35 > 0:11:39- Everyone who has it - knows it isn't good company.

0:11:39 > 0:11:43- When I'm on a horse, - it seems to disappear.

0:11:44 > 0:11:45- It goes quiet.

0:11:45 > 0:11:47- It goes quiet.- - You're concentrating on the horse.

0:11:55 > 0:12:00- Join us after the break - to see the family in competition.

0:12:01 > 0:12:05- Daloni also finds out - how a city boy from Manchester...

0:12:06 > 0:12:10- ..has ended up - owning 400 head of dairy cattle.

0:12:10 > 0:12:11- See you in two minutes.

0:12:23 > 0:12:25- Welcome back.

0:12:25 > 0:12:29- With the amount of competitions - today, astute judges are required.

0:12:30 > 0:12:35- They include a young Dryslwyn woman - who's judging for the first time.

0:12:35 > 0:12:36- What are you saying, eh?

0:12:47 > 0:12:50- Lisa, this is your first time - judging. How did it go?

0:12:51 > 0:12:52- OK, I think.

0:12:52 > 0:12:55- I hope the competitors - agreed with my choice.

0:12:55 > 0:12:57- I hope to do it again.

0:12:58 > 0:13:01- Why must horse judges look so smart?

0:13:02 > 0:13:03- It's an honour to be asked.

0:13:03 > 0:13:08- There are so many people involved - with horses in Wales and the UK.

0:13:08 > 0:13:11- You have to accept the invitation - and look the part.

0:13:12 > 0:13:14- There's no point - turning up in slippers!

0:13:14 > 0:13:19- It's disrespectful to those who put - so much effort in behind the scenes.

0:13:19 > 0:13:23- Where did you develop - your judging skills?

0:13:23 > 0:13:26- A lot of my experience - comes through the YFC.

0:13:26 > 0:13:30- Putting things in order - and giving reasons, and so on.

0:13:30 > 0:13:33- I have a lot to thank - the Young Farmers for.

0:13:39 > 0:13:42- The dairy industry - is suffering at the moment.

0:13:42 > 0:13:45- But Daloni - met a young family from Lleyn...

0:13:45 > 0:13:49- ..who are going against the flow - by starting out in the industry.

0:13:53 > 0:13:58- Penllech Bach Farm, Tudweiliog, - is home to Matthew Jackson...

0:13:58 > 0:14:02- ..his partner, Mari Elin, and - their children, Seren and Sionyn.

0:14:03 > 0:14:07- They farm 240 acres here - and milk 400 dairy cows.

0:14:07 > 0:14:12- But Matthew's story is different - to that of most young Welsh farmers.

0:14:12 > 0:14:15- He was born and raised - in Manchester.

0:14:15 > 0:14:18- He doesn't have - an agricultural background...

0:14:18 > 0:14:20- ..and he left school aged 15.

0:14:22 > 0:14:24- I've been learning Welsh - for two years.

0:14:25 > 0:14:28- I speak it with the children - every day.

0:14:31 > 0:14:33- But I don't like speaking...

0:14:33 > 0:14:39- ..or rather, I'm not comfortable - speaking Welsh with older people.

0:14:39 > 0:14:41- I want to go to Nant Gwrtheyrn.

0:14:42 > 0:14:46- I feel that I'm ready now...

0:14:48 > 0:14:51- ..to move on to the next step.

0:14:52 > 0:14:56- After spending his holidays and - every moment possible in Lleyn...

0:14:57 > 0:14:59- ..Matthew got a chance - to start farming.

0:15:00 > 0:15:02- It's a great story...

0:15:02 > 0:15:06- ..coming from where he did - to what he has now.

0:15:06 > 0:15:08- He's done great.

0:15:08 > 0:15:10- So, Matthew started with nothing?

0:15:10 > 0:15:12- So, Matthew started with nothing?- - Yes, he did.

0:15:12 > 0:15:14- I remember a long time ago...

0:15:14 > 0:15:19- ..we looked after Cian and Beca - and did odd jobs.

0:15:19 > 0:15:24- He'd work with Dilwyn Parc, - fencing, anything.

0:15:24 > 0:15:30- When he started milking, - I saw he had a big interest in it.

0:15:30 > 0:15:31- He stuck with that...

0:15:32 > 0:15:35- ..and that's how this opportunity - came about at Home Farm.

0:15:36 > 0:15:38- What's Matthew's secret?

0:15:38 > 0:15:41- I don't know anybody - who works as hard as he does.

0:15:41 > 0:15:46- Ever since we first got together, - he has worked every hour of the day.

0:15:47 > 0:15:49- He's quite stubborn as well.

0:15:49 > 0:15:54- If he wants something, - he works for it and he'll get it.

0:15:55 > 0:15:56- It's obviously worked.

0:15:56 > 0:15:58- There's one thing to say...

0:15:58 > 0:16:03- ..about coming here to live, being - accepted, and people actually...

0:16:03 > 0:16:07- ..from Manchester - not having a clue about farming.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10- Coming here - and people giving you chances.

0:16:10 > 0:16:13- Realizing - there might be potential there...

0:16:13 > 0:16:16- ..if they're willing - to give you the chance.

0:16:16 > 0:16:19- Everyone's been really good - like that.

0:16:19 > 0:16:25- Lending tractors and little things - that have helped me along the way.

0:16:25 > 0:16:29- Trailers and a van here and there, - stuff like that.

0:16:29 > 0:16:33- That's been people. - People make everything work.

0:16:39 > 0:16:41- By now, Matthew is 28...

0:16:41 > 0:16:46- ..and in a co-operative - farming contract with a landowner.

0:16:46 > 0:16:50- Cefnamwlch Estate - owns the land and buildings...

0:16:50 > 0:16:52- ..and Matthew owns the stock.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55- The profit - is split equally between them.

0:16:58 > 0:17:01- The hard part is making sure - you find the right person...

0:17:02 > 0:17:03- ..to be in a partnership with.

0:17:05 > 0:17:11- Having been to New Zealand twice, - that's the system he employs here.

0:17:11 > 0:17:14- It's a system which is dependent - on the pasture.

0:17:15 > 0:17:19- I went to New Zealand to learn - about the grass graze system.

0:17:19 > 0:17:22- I learnt a lot about milking - off Gary...

0:17:22 > 0:17:24- ..where I lived in the first place.

0:17:25 > 0:17:28- With this system, cows are out - ten months of the year...

0:17:29 > 0:17:31- ..and are grazing top-quality grass.

0:17:31 > 0:17:34- They're a different breed of animal.

0:17:34 > 0:17:38- They're a Jersey cross, - New Zealand Friesian cross.

0:17:38 > 0:17:42- They convert grass to milk.

0:17:42 > 0:17:47- We put as little bought-in feed - as possible into them.

0:17:47 > 0:17:50- They produce - lower amounts of milk...

0:17:50 > 0:17:54- ..but higher milk solids - off grazed grass.

0:17:54 > 0:17:57- Although milk prices are low...

0:17:57 > 0:18:00- ..Matthew believes - there's a way to survive...

0:18:01 > 0:18:03- ..and he monitors his costs closely.

0:18:03 > 0:18:08- The price of milk has gone down - this year, but I like a challenge.

0:18:08 > 0:18:12- My answer to that is I've got - to get better at what I do...

0:18:12 > 0:18:15- ..and reduce the production cost - of the milk.

0:18:15 > 0:18:18- It's difficult for everyone - at the moment.

0:18:19 > 0:18:21- But you've just got to do - the best you can.

0:18:22 > 0:18:25- Where can you cut costs - with milking?

0:18:25 > 0:18:30- Reducing the bought-in feed - in the milking parlour.

0:18:30 > 0:18:32- So, it's tight?

0:18:32 > 0:18:35- We're already producing it - at a very low cost.

0:18:35 > 0:18:37- The fertility side of it - is one of them.

0:18:38 > 0:18:41- We've got a lot of heifer calves - coming through.

0:18:41 > 0:18:45- Normally, I'd sell the surplus, - but they're worth less this year.

0:18:46 > 0:18:50- We're getting rid of the older cows - and bringing more heifers in.

0:18:50 > 0:18:52- They're better breeding.

0:18:52 > 0:18:56- That's one of the cost cuttings - with fertility...

0:18:56 > 0:19:01- ..as in not using as much - veterinary intervention this year.

0:19:01 > 0:19:05- Despite all the obstacles - in agriculture...

0:19:05 > 0:19:08- ..Matthew is passionate - about farming...

0:19:08 > 0:19:11- ..and his family's - way of life in Lleyn.

0:19:11 > 0:19:17- Over the next few years, we'll be - looking into buying our own farm.

0:19:17 > 0:19:20- I was in New Zealand - last November...

0:19:20 > 0:19:24- ..learning more about goal-setting - and strategic planning.

0:19:24 > 0:19:26- That's what we need to do next.

0:19:26 > 0:19:29- Put a strategy together - where we're going to be...

0:19:30 > 0:19:32- ..rather than going day to day.

0:19:32 > 0:19:35- Where do you think you'll be - in ten years, Mari?

0:19:36 > 0:19:37- Not far from here.

0:19:37 > 0:19:42- It'd be nice to have our own farm, - but not far from Tudweiliog, I hope.

0:19:49 > 0:19:51- The grand parade is about to start.

0:19:51 > 0:19:56- But first, I can't wait to hear - how it went with the Fronwen family.

0:19:56 > 0:19:57- Wyn, how has your day been?

0:19:57 > 0:19:58- Wyn, how has your day been?- - Excellent.

0:19:59 > 0:20:01- Everything has been great.

0:20:05 > 0:20:06- Did you get a ribbon?

0:20:06 > 0:20:08- Did you get a ribbon?- - Yes, but that's not why I came.

0:20:09 > 0:20:11- Everything was brilliant.

0:20:11 > 0:20:14- What was the general standard - of the horses today?

0:20:14 > 0:20:15- I didn't get much time to see them.

0:20:15 > 0:20:17- I didn't get much time to see them.- - You were too busy.

0:20:17 > 0:20:18- A full-time job.

0:20:19 > 0:20:24- You'd have to go far - to find as good a turnout.

0:20:25 > 0:20:27- What's next for the Fronwen family?

0:20:27 > 0:20:29- No idea.

0:20:30 > 0:20:32- To stick at it and improve.

0:20:59 > 0:21:02- A different horse, - but I'm delighted.

0:21:14 > 0:21:17- The tradition has changed a lot.

0:21:17 > 0:21:22- The vintage section has over - a hundred cars and tractors.

0:21:22 > 0:21:26- In days gone by, the tradition - was to find a stallion for the year.

0:21:26 > 0:21:30- They could see the stallions here - and pick one for their mares.

0:21:31 > 0:21:33- What's it like to judge here?

0:21:33 > 0:21:36- It's a great experience - and a wonderful show.

0:21:36 > 0:21:39- A significant show in Ceredigion.

0:21:39 > 0:21:41- It's a chance for breeders...

0:21:41 > 0:21:46- ..to come and pick a stallion - for their mares...

0:21:46 > 0:21:50- ..and good publicity - for the stallions and their owners.

0:21:50 > 0:21:53- It's a day - for business and pleasure.

0:21:55 > 0:21:59- How much work is it - to prepare for a day like this?

0:22:28 > 0:22:32- It's interesting - for them to look back.

0:22:32 > 0:22:36- Their parents - can tell them how things work.

0:22:37 > 0:22:38- The age of the horse.

0:22:39 > 0:22:43- How important is it - that traditions like this continue?

0:22:43 > 0:22:45- I think it's very important.

0:22:45 > 0:22:48- Once it ends, it'll never come back.

0:22:53 > 0:22:56- That's all from the excitement - of Barley Saturday.

0:22:56 > 0:23:00- It's nice to see such traditions - continuing in our communities...
