    I recall reading an article in one of the farm papers a few months back about how farmers willl have to rainwater to streams/rivers etc. without it being soiled.

    Does anyone know how they expect this to happen???

    You'll have to divert unsoiled rainwater away from the farm yard and all soiled water will have to go into your slurry tank.

    I dont think that answers your question though. can you elaborate?

    And what if there is no stream in a convenient place. On our farm, the nearest drain is over the other side of the main sheds. So I dont see how it would be possible to divert the rainwater from these gutters all the way over there

    Where dose your water go then?
    Once its clean water it can be diverted into any ditch, stream or soakpit
