A wnaiff y Gweinidog egluro pa eithriadau y mae Llywodraeth Cymru yn bwriadu eu rhoi ar waith er mwyn galluogi ffermwyr sy'n gweithredu mewn parthau perygl nitradau i wasgaru slyri yn ystod y cyfnod gwaharddedig, a'r cyfnod y bydd unrhyw eithriadau o'r fath yn gweithredu ar ei gyfer?
Exemptions to the closed periods already exist for organic manures in respect of crops sown on tillage land with sandy or shallow soil and for registered organic producers. Exemptions also enable manufactured fertilisers to be applied to specific crops and in accordance with advice from a FACTS qualified advisor.
