Talk:Agriculture in Wales

Arable farming
Is it possible you could find a bit more on arable farming? Also what about the European Union influence on agriculture, and diversification? Diversification from farmers is quite important in Wales, many farms in the summer earnmost of their money from strawberry and rasberry picking and paintballing etc! Also something about the nature of markets in Wales, how produce is sold etc. I believe a lot of farmers have deals now with supermarkets with milk etc.♦ Dr. Blofeld  13:18, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Indeed, I am open to new ideas and am still working on the article. I will try to add more on arable. The crop of the moment round where I live is wind turbines. I might mention how farmers diversify briefly, but is that getting off the subject of agriculture? Cwmhiraeth (talk) 13:26, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
 * Yes diversification should be brief. Yes, wind farms, very much so, I can see a lot of the ones in the valleys across the vale from where I live! I think this could use a little more detail on farming methods, the crops/sheep farming and the market for GA. A bit more detail on the EU influence too I think. Are there any figures on milk production and wool production in Wales as a direct result of farming? I know Aymatth just created an article on the Woollen industry in Wales. Pesticides and cultivation etc too. I'll see how it comes on when you've expanded it and take another look at it then.♦ Dr. Blofeld  16:31, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

Structure of the article?
I recently split Agriculture in Turkey out from the economy article and am wondering what the structure should be. So I thought I might copy a good "Agriculture in country X". But the structure here looks a bit odd don't you think - if anyone improves it please ping me or indeed edit Agriculture in Turkey directly to a better structure.

Fish farms in scope?
I assume fish farming is part of agriculture but they are not mentioned Chidgk1 (talk) 19:12, 27 May 2022 (UTC)


 * @Titus Gold I see you have been improving the article - what do you think about whether fish farming is in scope or not? Chidgk1 (talk) 12:49, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
 * Perhaps you should expand Fishing industry in Wales to Fish industry in Wales and add links directing readers between Agriculture and Fish page? Titus Gold (talk) 22:46, 5 March 2023 (UTC)
 * I am not planning to edit anything about Wales. I asked because this is the only "Agriculture in country X" good article so I hoped to use it as a model for bringing Agriculture in Turkey up to good. Thanks for mentioning the other article I did not know about. So I assume you are saying that fish farms belong in "Fishing industry in X" not "Agriculture in X".
