Incenerators on your farm

DagneyTaggart

It's only recently that I discovered that you can incenerate dead stock on your farm. I was wondering if anyone has one and how they are finding them?

Thanks.

I'd imagine you would want to be loosing some amount of stock to justify such a contraption. Not to mention, the milage allowance, box ticking, white welli wearing, white cost wearing, gurus you would have coming to check out the operation. There would be some amount of forms to be filled out in triplicate, and so on. Don't forget the EPA guys as well. They have forms to make the dept ag guys blush!!!!
Oh, and imagine the planning approval process ......... more forms
Oh, and the tree huggers you would bring down on your self

But only for all the forms I could be selling smokey buffelo flavered cheese:D

Its a serious bit of kit.
Overheard 2 guys discussing would it be any good to burn silage wrap ::)

Generally, they burn 50kgs an hour; but it take 1.5-2 gallons of Keroscene to run this baby, per hour.

I'd imagine that the running of it might require a list of health and safety precautions, too.

Might not be a runner. Thanks for the replies.
