The latest red tractor/ crop assurance booklet clearly states that a cipc risk assessment must be carried out on all buildings where grain is stored ( either short or long term ) . My understanding is that if cipc has ever been applied to a potatoe crop stored in the building no matter how long ago cipc will be detected if the fabric of the store is tested . The level of contamination is set at zero as grain has not got an mrl for cipc . Am I the only person that thinks this is potentially a huge problem to many farms that is just being over looked ? I am now renewing my red tractor assurance and have been told under no uncertain terms that unless I take my grain store out of my storage plan ( as I know it wil be contaminated ) I will be suspended from the scheme . This means that I have an 800 ton drier (Ex potatoe store ) that I can't use and I will have a lot of wheat unassured !!!!!!!
