What he spreading ?

The part time boy

There a lad near by spreading something in big spreaders filled from a lorry load dumped fardest away point from the gate that smells like human waste .

Any idea what it is ?

Sam Kade

It's exactly what you said it was, a farmer around here got them to spread it on his land a few years ago.

The part time boy

Did not know u can get it pellet form ?

Would that be sludge or is that a different thing

Must be fairly heavy if its with a muck spreader, Go get some samples and post up some pics. Feel the texture in your fingers while your at.

If it looks like it, feels like it, smells like it, it might just be it.

No I mean big lime / fertlizer spreaders .

Will i taste it as well !

Could be waste from an anaerobic digester. Think theres a few in south east. I think it can be used as an organic fertiliser.Is he organic farming?

No talking land near us . It's the same smell as he emptied a specitc tank

I said

Is there much soggy white looking paper with brown stains in them?

Is it tillage ground? could it be chicken manure, farmers usually take the sloppier stuff and the mushroom houses take the dry manure

The part time boy

No after sillage . It seems to be in Pellet form

Take a look at Quinn's of Baltinglass website, loads of info on" Biofert" and "Biocake " lovely stuff from the Ringsend sewage treatment plant.
Basically it's dem Dubs shi##ing all over the Culchies ðŸ˜

Not really....about 30 miles. He spreads lime here, was telling me about it last year. He's West limerick based if it's the man I think it is.

License to spread that human ****e is only a couple years so must be bad, open to correction as neighbour here spreads it

I'd say muckit is spot on. I worked for a contractor years ago spreading chicken litter with a bredal lime/fert spreader.

Human waste was always used on farmland. It was very much sought after.

Don't know if it was the invention of bag manure or the household chemicals that could be in it was the reason for it's demise?

You need a permit for human waste and it's highly regulated by epa

Due to the pharmaceuticals and heavy metal that we ****.

Can't be used on any ground to grow human food so grass or an animal feed crop

But because of that coming out of your body I bet you wouldn't eat organic food?:)

Lime sludge/waste from a co-op is white in colour, and none of that peppery smell off it, that you get with a septic tank. You need something like a Sampson rear discharge spreader to get it out.

A lot of that stuff produced around the ops area is pelletised. Spread by a Bredal or similar.

Have you found out what it is yet. At this stage I would nearly drive there to find out :rolleyes:
Why don't you just ask him? IMO there is nothing worse than surmising neighbours who can't be arsed asking you directly.

I was told today that I was selling up the farm.

One local busybody, with not enough to keep himself occupied was telling another similar specimen, and he then spread it around the area.

Jeez, what the hell is going on in their heads?

My father was told that he was dead.:D

This was 20 years ago before the mobile phone and social media.
He went into work on Monday morning and it was spread around that he was after dying that weekend.
Everyone got a shock when he walked in the door.
He never did find out who started the rumour.

The part time boy
