    I was going to say all you boys holding dung for over closed period would be in serious trouble with a Nitrates inspection. Even the eye in the sky will cope a heap of dung. I had a guy out as two field side by side were incorrectly marked for beet instead of wheat and vice versa.

    we get inspected every second year without fail, we do get a fine but we just take it because we dont have the money to do a proper job yet. Hopefully in the next year or two we can get a better job done

    is a repeat offense not double/triple the original fine. Its strange they havnt put the local Council who would issue with a section 23 notice to begin with and then go heavy when you cant comply. Its how they do business around here

    we never have too much trouble about it, its just the fact that the dung isnt covered is the problem we comply with everything else. Never had a council inspection now

    Possibly a pointless idea, but if you say covered the dung with an old silage plastic sheet, to reduce the rain runoff would it help much? Probably too much work involved in doing it anyway, to keep the rainwater and existing slurry runoff separate.

    had thought of that myself but if ye wanted to pull it back ye could get stuck in the dung
