Clearing Muck Heaps

[TURBOBERT]

For several years a local farmer has cleared our muck heap and spread what is very good qulity muck (Hemcore and very biodegradable) on his own land. This year he says he can no longer do this owing to EEC regulations that as he has a certain number of cattle whose muck exceeds the amount required for his acreage he cannot, therefore, take ours. He also has to 'contain' his own muck in a concreted 'clamp' - he uses an old silage clamp.

This leaves us totally stuck! What do other people do?. We dont have enough land to spread it on our paddocks and understand that the Council charges 'the earth' to do this.

Ares goes to local plant nurserys to be used as fertiliser. However they requested that all muck was placed in a small skip making it easier for the muck to be transported back and fourth.

I pay a local contracter who also does our field maintainance,to clear it. He takes it away......god knows where,but I don't really care
