Winter Wildlife and Farming Futures

A look at community projects, winter wildlife and reflections from the Oxford Farming Conference.

Stories from rural west Wales exploring how communities, nature and agriculture respond to both seasonal pressures and long-term change.

On the border between Carmarthenshire and Ceredigion, Rhodri visits Llandysul Paddlers Club and Canoe Centre to hear more about their Open Door project, an initiative designed to widen access to paddlesports and create a welcoming, inclusive community space.

The programme also turns to the winter starling murmuration in Aberystwyth, examining the remarkable behaviour that draws thousands of birds to the town at dusk and the significance of this natural spectacle for the local environment.

Ifan then chats with Eiry Williams, who attended the 2026 Oxford Farming Conference through a Royal Welsh Agricultural Society bursary, reflecting on the conference theme of Growing Resilience and what the discussions reveal about the future of farming in Wales.
