There has been significant engagement with the Welsh Government at ministerial and official level ahead of the 2020 Spending Review, including on the topic of farm payments.<\/p>
<\/strong><\/p>At Spending Review 2020, the government provided £240 million of Exchequer funding for Welsh farmers, land managers and the rural economy for 2021/22. This meets the government\u2019s manifesto commitment to maintain the current annual budget to farmers, ensuring that Welsh farmers will receive the same total funding in 2021/22 as they received in 2019 when the manifesto commitment was made.<\/p>

I had regular discussions with the Chancellor of the Exchequer on a wide range of subjects prior to Spending Review 2020, including future agriculture funding.<\/p>
<\/p>
This Government stood on a clear manifesto commitment to guarantee the current annual budget to farmers in every year of this Parliament. We fulfilled this commitment for 2021-22 in the Spending Review. We have provided new Exchequer funding on top of the remaining £97 million of EU funding to ensure that £337 million of support continues to go to Welsh farmers this year. We remain committed to our manifesto pledge for the remainder of this Parliament.<\/p>

Agriculture is a devolved matter and now we have left the EU each UK administration has the flexibility to develop agricultural policy suited to their own unique circumstances. There is much merit in working cooperatively with the Welsh Government and we are working closely with all the devolved administrations on an administrative agricultural support framework. The framework will cover cross border issues. There are many farms along the border between England and Wales, so there is value in working cooperatively with the Welsh Government and learning from one another.<\/p>"}

We remain focused on ensuring our smooth and orderly withdrawal from the EU with a deal as soon as possible. However, as a responsible Government we have been preparing to minimise any disruption in the event of a no-deal.<\/p>
I regularly meet with the Farmers\u2019 Union of Wales, NFU Cymru and the CLA Cymru to discuss EU Exit and the impact on the agriculture sector.<\/p>
We have made it clear that we will support vulnerable sectors, such as our sheep farmers, through government intervention in the event of a \u2018no-deal\u2019, should this be necessary. We will be monitoring the sectors which may be exposed to short-term difficulties as a result of EU Exit closely to identify early signs of market disturbance allowing us to react swiftly.<\/p>
