Waste - your responsibilities
Recent press coverage of prosecutions by the Environment Agency serve as a timely reminder that farmers need to be aware of waste regulations when bringing material onto farm.
Things can easily go wrong, even when waste contractors or specialist advisers/consultants are involved. Farmers need to be aware that waste recovery operations which deposit unsuitable waste materials onto farmland could leave them with an expensive clean-up, or even facing prosecution.
