27 January 2025

From Monday, 27 January, S4C will introduce an extended weather bulletin specifically for the agriculture industry.

The bulletin will be broadcast every Monday night following Ffermio (Farming) programme.

In addition to providing a detailed forecast for the coming week, it will give special attention to weather conditions and related information that could impact farming activities and rural life.

The new extended bulletin will run as a two-month pilot following discussions between the Weather production team and individuals from the agriculture industry about useful additional content.

Sharen Griffith, S4C's Head of News and Current Affairs, said:

"The weather is vitally important to farmers and rural communities, and we hope the extended bulletin will provide a valuable forecast for our viewers."

The bulletin will also be shared on S4C Weather's social media platforms on Facebook and X, as well as on S4C Clic and BBC iPlayer for 24 hours after the bulletin. Subtitles will also be available.
