Check you know your responsibilities
There can be problems 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.
NFU members can view a briefing on what you need to know under related documents, above right.
