Farming Unions Welcome All-Wales Bluetongue Restricted Zone
Farming unions have welcomed the Welsh Government's announcement of an all-Wales Restricted Zone (RZ) for Bluetongue serotype 3 (BTV-3), effective November 10.
The move replaces the existing Temporary Control Zone with a single national approach, simplifying disease control measures and supporting ongoing surveillance and vaccination efforts.
NFU Cymru President Aled Jones said: "We welcome the announcement by the Deputy First Minister Huw Irranca-Davies that an all-Wales Restricted Zone (RZ) for Bluetongue serotype 3 (BTV-3) will be introduced from 10th November 2025.
The decision takes into account dropping temperatures and reduced midge activity.
