🌿 How do you measure a year of farming for nature?

In its first year, the Welsh Government's Ffermio Bro scheme has supported 84 projects across 200 farms in Wales' National Parks and National Landscapes, helping to create, restore and enhance 🌿 hedgerows, 🌳 woodlands, 🐸 ponds, 💧 waterways and 🪨 drystone walls.

🌿 These projects are delivering practical benefits for wildlife, landscapes and local communities, while supporting farmers and land managers 🚜 to care for some of Wales' most special places.

📍 The report also showcases a range of individual projects, including Great Pitton Farm in Gower, where virtual fencing is helping to support conservation grazing 🐄 and habitat management 🌾 while improving livestock safety.

🌿 Sut ydych chi'n mesur blwyddyn o ffermio ar gyfer natur?

Yn ystod ei flwyddyn gyntaf, mae cynllun Ffermio Bro Llywodraeth Cymru wedi cefnogi 84 o brosiectau ar draws 200 o ffermydd ym Mharciau Cenedlaethol a Thirweddau Cenedlaethol Cymru, gan helpu i greu, adfer a gwella 🌿gwrychoedd, 🌳coetiroedd, 🐸 pyllau, 💧 dyfrffyrdd a 🪨 waliau sychion.

🌿 Mae'r prosiectau hyn yn cyflwyno manteision ymarferol ar gyfer bywyd gwyllt, tirweddau a chymunedau lleol, wrth gefnogi ffermwyr a rheolwyr tir 🚜 i ofalu am rai o leoedd mwyaf arbennig Cymru.

📍Mae'r adroddiad hefyd yn arddangos amrywiaeth o brosiectau unigol, gan gynnwys Ffermdy Great Pitton ym Mhenrhyn Gŵyr, lle mae ffensys rhithwir yn helpu i gefnogi pori er lles cadwraeth 🐄 a rheoli cynefinoedd🌾 wrth wella diogelwch da byw.

🌌 Sylw arbennig i awyr dywyll Gŵyr!

✨Fel Cymuned Awyr Dywyll Ryngwladol, mae Gŵyr yn cael ei chydnabod am ei hawyr dywyll eithriadol a'r gwaith sy'n digwydd i'w gwarchod. Drwy leihau llygredd golau, cefnogi goleuadau stryd sy'n gyfeillgar i'r awyr dywyll a monitro ansawdd ein hawyr y nos, rydym yn helpu i warchod un o asedau naturiol mwyaf arbennig Gŵyr.

🌙Rydym wrth ein bodd bod y ffotograffydd Magnus Huber wedi llwyddo i gyfleu harddwch awyr y nos ym mhenrhyn Gŵyr yng nghystadleuaeth ffotograffiaeth ryngwladol DarkSky Capture the Dark. Mae ei ddelweddau trawiadol yn dangos pam mae gwarchod ein hawyr dywyll yn bwysig ac yn helpu i rannu tirwedd nos unigryw Gŵyr â chynulleidfa ehangach.

📷Gallwch bleidleisio tan 31 Gorffennaf (fory). Gallwch weld y cynigion a phleidleisio yma: https://capturethedark.darksky.org/contest2026/gallery
