Pa drafodaethau y mae'r Gweinidog Cabinet wedi'u cael gyda Chyfoeth Naturiol Cymru ynglŷn â'r effaith y mae aredig llorweddol o'i gymharu ag aredig fertigol yn ei chael ar erydiad a llifogydd, ac a oes gan Lywodraeth Cymru unrhyw gynlluniau i orfodi aredig llorweddol ym Mhen y Fan, neu mewn unrhyw ardal arall?
I recognise that cultivation methods can influence soil erosion and water runoff. While cultivating across slopes can be beneficial in some circumstances, the most appropriate approach depends on local conditions such as slope, soil type and weather. For that reason, we do not currently plan to mandate horizontal ploughing in Wales.
The Sustainable Farming Scheme (SFS) supports farmers to undertake actions that protect soils and water resources, while maintaining sustainable food production.
We will continue to engage with Natural Resources Wales, and other partners, to support an evidence-led, site-specific approach to sustainable land management that protects soils and water resources.
