Hybu Cig Cymru

7th March 2023

Major sponsor, Hybu Cig Cymru – Meat Promotion Wales (HCC), is looking forward to sharing the latest developments at NSA Welsh Sheep 23. HCC’s Producer and Processor Support Lead, John Richards, says it will be a good opportunity to catch up after a very challenging few years.

The organisation will be celebrating the success and sharing results from the Red Meat Development Programme, funded by the Welsh Government and the EU Rural Development Programme. The Red Meat Development Programme has focused on three key elements across the red meat sector – genetics in the hill sector, proactive flock and herd health planning and the meat eating quality of Welsh Lamb.

HCC will be taking part in the NSA Sheep Event seminars, as well as hosting Welsh Lamb cooking demonstrations on their cookery trailer.

HCC’s Producer and Processor Support Lead, John Richards, commented: “We are very pleased to be major sponsors of the NSA Welsh Sheep Event 2023 through the Red Meat Development Programme.

“We are looking forward to seeing the industry gathered together once again and sharing our successes from the Red Meat Development Programme, as well as highlighting HCC’s wider work also.’

‘We would encourage all farmers and project participants to come and see us at the NSA Welsh Sheep – a day which promises to be both enjoyable and informative.’
