Pa asesiad y mae Llywodraeth Cymru wedi'i wneud o'r buddion economaidd i ffermwyr yn Nghymru yn sgil cyfleoedd newydd i allforio cig oen Cymru i Japan?

In 2019 a new trade deal between the UK and Japan opened the Japanese market to beef and lamb from the UK including Wales. 

It is important to capitalise on this opportunity, and I welcome the success HCC have had in securing deals for Welsh farmers to export lamb to Japan. 

Exports of meat and meat products were worth £265 million in 2022 – the latest official figures – and with just over a third of the value of all exports, they constitute the largest category for food and drink exports from Wales.
