answer text <p>The dry weather conditions last summer created challenges for many of our farmers, in terms of lower yields in the arable sector and a shortage of fodder for livestock farmers. The government took steps at the time to introduce a number of flexibilities under the Common Agricultural Policy’s Ecological Focus Areas, as well as Countryside Stewardship, Environmental Stewardship and woodland grant schemes to assist farmers and foresters struggling with the impacts of the dry weather.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>Met Office data shows that November and December 2018 were notably milder than the long-term average allowing livestock farmers to be able to consider keeping their animals turned out to graze for longer. However, we are continuing to monitor the situation closely. The first results for the UK’s Total Factor Productivity in agriculture during 2018 will be published in May. Total Factor Productivity statistics are published on gov.uk and can be accessed at: <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/total-factor-productivity-of-the-agricultural-industry" target="_blank">https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/total-factor-productivity-of-the-agricultural-industry</a>.</p>

answer text <p>The UK has legally binding targets to reduce the emissions of fine particulate matter (PM<sub>2.5</sub>) by 2020 and again by 2030 under the National Emissions Ceilings Regulations 2018.</p><p> </p><p>We also have legally binding limits for PM<sub>2.5</sub> concentrations (annual mean of 25μg/m<sup>3</sup>), with which we are in full compliance nationwide. We are on track to meet the 2020 target (20μg/m<sup>3</sup>) already.</p><p> </p><p>In our recent Clean Air Strategy, we also set out our ambition to halve the number of people living in areas above the World Health Organization (WHO) guideline level of 10μg/m<sup>3</sup> by 2025.</p><p> </p><p>We also committed to setting a new, ambitious, long-term target to reduce people’s exposure to PM<sub>2.5</sub>, and we will publish evidence early in 2019 to examine what action would be needed to meet the WHO guideline level of 10μg/m<sup>3</sup>.</p><p> </p><p>We are the first major economy to set ambitions based on the WHO guidelines for PM<sub>2.5</sub>. Our Clean Air Strategy was welcomed by the WHO, who called it “an example for the rest of the world to follow.”</p>
