Yr oedd cynhadledd organig mis Hydref yn edrych ar y berthynas rhwng ffermio organig a newid yn yr hinsawdd. Ymhlith pethau eraill, rhoddwyd sylw i ffermwyr a osodasai gyfleusterau hydro-electrig a threulwyr anerobig, a llunwyr polisïau sy’n cydnabod cyfraniad ffermio organig at leihau olion traed ecolegol. Yr oedd y siaradwyr yn cynnwys Morgan Parry o’r WWF, Peter Davies o’r Comisiwn Datblygiad Cynaliadwy, a Nic Lampkin o Ganolfan Organig Cymru. Gellir lawrlwytho eu cyflwyniadau yn fan hyn. Gweler y Farmers Guardian.

Cymru Un Blaned

Y mae adroddiad gan WWF Cymru yn amcangyfrif y byddai angen tair planed i’n cynnal petai holl bobl y byd yn defnyddio adnoddau naturiol ac yn cynhyrchu carbon deuocsid fel y gwnawn yng Nghymru. Daw i’r casgliad fod yn rhaid inni leihau ôl troed Cymru 75% erbyn 2050 er mwyn inni fyw o fewn ein cyfran deg o adnoddau’r blaned. Mae’r adroddiad yn pleidio rhagor o drawsnewid organig, wedi ei gefnogi gan gaffael sector cyhoeddus. Manylion

Rafael

Fe gynhaliwyd cynhadledd derfynol Rafael (Renaissance of Atlantic Food Authenticity and Economic Links) prosiect yr UE sy'n dod i ben ym mis Rhagfyr, yn Zamora, Sbaen, fis diwethaf. Yn gynt ym mis Hydref, roedd OCW a Tom Cowcher wedi trefnu cinio Rafael (lleol ac organig) ar gyfer plant yn Ysgol Gynradd Llandysul, yn ogystal ag ymweliad fferm a marchnad ffermwyr yn iard yr ysgol.

Yr Ystadegau Diweddaraf

Mae’r ystadegau mwyaf diweddar ar gyfer Rhagfyr 2006, sy’n cwmpasu Cymru a’r DU, yn awr ar gael yn www.organic.aber.ac.uk/statistics. Maent yn dangos bod y tir dan reolaeth organig yng Nghymru wedi cynyddu 11.5% rhwng Rhagfyr 2005 a Rhagfyr 2006, sy’n golygu bod Cymru wedi gwneud yn well na phob cenedl arall yn y DU. Erbyn Rhagfyr 2006, yr oedd 78,973 hectar o dir yn cael ei reoli i safonau organig mewn 710 o ffermydd organig ledled Cymru. Y mae atodiad arbennig i Tir Organig, sy’n rhestru’r prif ganlyniadau, i’w gael yma.

Caffael organig

Organic Wales

Organic producers' conference

Last month's organic conference looked at the relationship between organic farming and climate change, from farmers who have installed hydroelectric facilities and anaerobic digesters, to policy-makers who are recognizing the contribution of organic farming to reducing ecological footprints. Speakers included Morgan Parry of the WWF, Peter Davies of the Sustainable Development Commission and Nic Lampkin of OCW, and their presentations can be downloaded here.

See Farmers Guardian.

People often ask about lift-sharing to events such as these. Next time you are going to any event, you can reduce your ecological footprint by registering your journey with www.liftshare.com and sharing the ride.

One Planet Wales

A report from WWF Cymru calculates that if everyone in the world consumed natural resources and generated carbon dioxide at the rate we do in Wales, we would need three planets to support us. It concludes that we must cut Wales' footprint by 75% by 2050 in order to live within our fair share of the planet's resources. More organic conversion, supported by public sector procurement, is one recommendation of the report. Details

Rafael

The final conference of Rafael (Renaissance of Atlantic Food Authenticity and Economic Links), a 3-year EU project that concludes in December, was held last month in Zamora, Spain. Earlier in the month OCW and Tom Cowcher had arranged a Rafael (local and organic) meal for children at Llandysul primary school, together with a farm visit and a farmers' market in the school yard.

Statistics update

Up to date statistics for December 2006, covering Wales and the UK, are now available at www.organic.aber.ac.uk/statistics. They show that between December 2005 and December 2006, the area of organically managed land in Wales increased by 11.5%, outperforming every other nation in the UK. By December 2006, 78,973 ha of land were managed to organic standards across 710 organic holdings throughout Wales.

A special supplement to Tir Organig, listing the main results, is available here.

Organic procurement

Ffermio

Yn ôl i'r brig

Y Cynllun Ffermio Organig

Yng nghynhadledd y cynhyrchwyr organig fis diwethaf, cyhoeddodd Elin Jones y byddai’r Cynllun Ffermio Organig yn ailagor y mis Tachwedd, gyda gwelliannau. Bydd pecynnau gwneud cais ar gael o Swyddfeydd Adrannol Lleol ym mis Tachwedd, ond bydd ffermwyr sydd eisoes wedi dangos diddordeb yn y cynllun yn cael copi drwy’r post yn awtomatig. Gweler tudalen polisi'r Ganolfan.

Arolwg cynhyrchwyr

Os ydych yn ffermwr organig yng Nghrymu, byddwch yn derbyn holiadur gan Ganolfan Organig Cymru yn fuan, a fydd yn gofyn am wybodaeth ynglŷn â chynhyrchu. Y rheswm am hyn yw bod gwybodaeth sylfaenol am gynhyrchu yn brin, ac y mae’n rhaid cael yr wybodaeth honno er mwyn i fusnesau organig Cymreig fedru gwneud gwell penderfyniadau, ac er mwyn i Lywodraeth Cynulliad Cymru, Hybu Cig Cymru, Canolfan Organig Cymru ac asiantau eraill fedru targedu cymorth ar eich cyfer yn well.

Mae’r cwrs yn addas ar gyfer unrhyw un sydd â diddordeb mewn croesawu ysgolion neu bobl ifanc i’w ffermydd, ac yn ymdrin â thestunau megis iechyd a diogelwch, y cwricwlwm cenedlaethol, a siarad gyda phobl ifanc.

Organic Farming Scheme

Elin Jones announced at last month's organic producers' conference that the Organic Farming Scheme would reopen in November, with improvements. Application packs will be available from local Divisional Offices in November, but farmers who have previously expressed an interest in the scheme will automatically be sent a copy. See the OCW policy page.

Producer survey

If you are an organic producer in Wales you can expect to receive a questionnaire from OCW soon, asking for information about production. This is because there is a shortage of basic production information, which is needed so that Welsh organic businesses have a better basis for decision making, and that the Welsh Assembly Government, Hybu Cig Cymru, OCW and other agencies can better target their support for your work. If you would rather complete it electronically, you can download the questionnaires from www.organic.aber.ac.uk/survey2007

Soil Association and air freight

Following a consultation on whether air-freighted food should be given an organic symbol, the Soil Association Standards Board has recommended continuing to allow air freighted organic food that delivers genuine social and development benefits. It proposes that all Soil Association certified air-freighted products meet the Soil Association’s Ethical Trade standards or equivalent fair trade standards by 2011, and that businesses reliant on air freight develop initiatives to reduce the amount of product they air freight.

Lles anifeiliaid ar ffermydd llaeth

Dengys adroddiad gan Goleg Amaethyddol yr Alban nad oes fawr ddim gwahaniaeth rhwng systemau llaeth confensiynol ac organig o ran safonau lles anifeiliaid. Yr unig eithriad oedd bod llai o gloffni ar ffermydd organig. Datganiad i’r wasg.

Mae bwyd organig yn well i chi

Mae adroddiad gan Brifysgol Newcastle sydd wedi canfod lefel uwch o faetholion mewn bwyd organig, yn enwedig gwrthocsidyddion, wedi cael sylw helaeth yn y wasg. Mae’r Asiantaeth Safonau Bwyd wedi cadarnhau y bydd yn adolygu ei safbwynt fod bwyd organig yn ddim gwell na bwyd confensiynol yn hyn o beth. Gweler Gwefan y BBC.

Animal welfare on dairy farms

A report from the Scottish Agricultural College has found little difference in animal welfare standards between conventional and organic diary systems, except that there was less lameness on organic farms. SAC news release.
