Ein nod wrth lunio’r trefniadau AC newydd i Gymru oedd lleihau cymaint â phosib ar gymhlethdod diangen wrth symud i daliadau ar sail ardal, gan ddilyn amserlen resymol i gyflawni’r trawsnewid hwnnw dros y pum mlynedd nesaf. Mae cael rhanbarth rhostir yn lleddfu ergyd y newid mewn taliadau i ffermwyr ar draws Cymru gyfan. Bydd symud at daliadau ar sail ardal fodd bynnag yn fanteisiol i nifer o ffermydd yr ucheldir.
Our goal, in designing the new CAP arrangements for Wales, has been to minimise unnecessary turbulence in the move to area-based payments, while bringing the transition about in a reasonable timescale over the next five years. Having a moorland region reduces the severity of payment change to farmers across the whole of Wales. The move to area-based payments will nevertheless benefit many upland farms.
