Poultry producers in Wales say their businesses are at risk following a ban on bird sales and shows to lessen the potential spread of avian flu.
Chris and Gene Taylor, who run one of the biggest auctions for breeders in Wales, said the ban cut trading by 80%.
“Birds are our livelihood,” said Mrs Taylor, who runs Pen-rhiw-garn Poultry in Llangynidr, near Crickhowell.
