What trade deals mean for farmers

NFU Cymru deputy president Abi Reader on how the UK's trade deals with India and the US will affect Welsh agriculture

THE UK Government has struck new trade agreements with India and the US.

The deal with India was the first to be agreed by the Labour Government in Westminster last week.

From our perspective, we believe this deal is balanced and considered, it upholds our high production standards and secures market access for our agri-food exports, such as lamb, biscuits, whisky and gin.

It also protects our sectors that would be susceptible to Indian imports produced to a lower standard, by excluding certain products including sugar, pork and eggs.

Of particular interest to Welsh farmers will be access secured for exports of UK lamb to India, where the 33% tariff will be completely removed.
