Bydd y cynllun grantiau ar gael i helpu prosiectau sy'n llesol i'r amgylchedd. 

 Bydd cyfnod cyntaf cynllun Grantiau Bach Glastir yn rhoi grantiau o hyd at £5,000 fesul cwsmer i gynnal gwaith cyfalaf sy'n lleihau allyriadau carbon, yn gwella ansawdd dŵr, yn lleihau'r risg o lifogydd ac yn cynyddu bioamrywiaeth frodorol Cymru.

 Daeth cyhoeddiad Ysgrifennydd y Cabinet wrth iddi annerch Cyfarfod Cyffredinol Blynyddol Undeb Amaethwyr Cymru. Yn ei haraith, ailbwysleisiodd y rôl bwysig y mae ffermwyr yn ei chwarae wrth helpu Llywodraeth Cymru i gyrraedd ei nod o leihau allyriadau carbon.

 Dywedodd Lesley Griffiths:

 
> “Yn dilyn cyhoeddi cynllun Grantiau Bach Glastir ym mis Chwefror, mae'n bleser gennyf gyhoeddi y bydd y cyfnod cyntaf Datgan Diddordeb yn agor ar 27 Mehefin, gan ganolbwyntio ar fesurau a fydd yn cloi carbon.
> 
> “Bydd cyllid ar gael ar gyfer prosiectau sy'n plannu coetiroedd bychain, plannu coed ac yn creu ac adfer perthi (gwrych).
> 
> "Mae ffermio a'r amgylchedd yn mynd law yn llaw ac rwy'n falch o weld bod fy mhortffolio newydd yn dod â'r materion hollbwysig hyn ynghyd. Rydym wedi pennu targedau uchelgeisiol i leihau allyriadau carbon yng Nghymru ac mae gan bob un ohonom ran i'w chwarae wrth gyflawni'r nodau hynny. Byddwn felly'n annog ffermwyr a pherchnogion tir i fanteisio ar y cynllun grant hwn.”

 Cynllun peilot yw Grantiau Bach Glastir. Mae'r cyfnod datgan diddordeb cyntaf yn werth £1\.5miliwn, gyda grantiau o hyd at £5,000 ar gael fesul cwsmer i gynnal prosiectau cyfalaf.

 Gofynnir i ffermwyr a pherchnogion tir gyflwyno ceisiadau ar gyfer prosiectau cyfalaf cymwys a dewisir ceisiadau fel rhan o broses ddethol gystadleuol.

The first window of the Glastir Small Grants scheme will provide grants of up to £5,000 per customer for capital works which reduce carbon emissions, improve water quality, reduce flood risks and increase Wales’ native biodiversity. 

The Cabinet Secretary announced the opening of the Expression of Interest window during a speech at the Farmers Union Wales’ Annual General Meeting. During the speech she also reiterated the important role farming will play in supporting the Welsh Government in its aims to reduce Wales’ carbon emissions.

Lesley Griffiths said:


> “Following the announcement of the Glastir Small Grants scheme in February, I am pleased to announce the first Expression of Interest window will open on June 27 and will concentrate on measures which help to lock up carbon.
> 
> “This includes funding for projects such as small woodland planting, tree planting and hedgerow creation and restoration.
> 
> “Farming and the environment go hand in hand and I am pleased my new portfolio brings together these vital issues. We’ve set ambitious targets to reduce Wales’ carbon emissions and we all have a role to play in achieving these goals. I would therefore urge farmers and landowners to take advantage of this grant scheme.”

The Glastir Small Grants is a pilot scheme. The first window is worth £1\.5million, with grants of up to £5,000 per customer available for capital projects.

Farmers and land owners are asked to submit applications for eligible capital projects, which will be chosen as part of a competitive selection process.
