The Farmers’ Union of Wales has today marked the end of an era, as its long standing Finance and Organisation committee (F&O) have met for the very last time.
The FUW is undergoing a structural change, seeing the incorporation of the business arm of the Union. This change sees the original and long standing F&O committee retired and replaced with a Board of Directors and a Presidential Policy Team.
Elections to the new board and policy team will take place at the Union’s upcoming Annual General meeting on June 12.
FUW President Glyn Roberts said: “I would like to thank all those long standing F&O committee members, past and present, for their dedication to this Union and for believing in the change we are now making.
“Like all organisations the FUW is looking to the future. We have made a significant impact on the Welsh Agricultural scene since our creation in 1955 and we look forward to an exciting future, with a new team at the helm. I wish all those standing for election the very best of luck.”
