I have found them good to deal with. Had a js130 and a js145 off them and very happy with both machines. Would use them again.

I agree, but is there anywhere in the legislation that is specific on this point?

No, just the outdoor pits shown in the photo. As I propose to only create an additional 750 square feet of floor space it makes sense to me to calculate the fee on this addition. The planning officer thinks differently, but I think this might be from a revenue generating perspective. It would...

We are looking to cover an outdoor silage pit that was built in 2014 after obtaining full planning permission. It is 90' wide and 75' long. We now want to put a roof over it and make it 10'wider, so there will be an additional 750 square feet of floor area. Does the planning fee need to be...

GUH, yesterday we took some cattle to a local show and made the day for a young special needs little girl that we let stroke our cattle and even lead one. So stupid of us, the public backlash would have been terrible if anything happened....

Was thinking of a mix of farm saved oats then maybe roots and vetch purchased as straights as a cc. I was thinking that this would lower total seed costs by removing the manufacturers costs and margin. I take a similar approach to feeding the cows by using straight RM's, byproducts and as...

A question for those that dd cover crop mixes: Is there much separation of different sized seeds in mixes when sown with an air drill, and can this cause a significant problem in the cover crop? I've got a GD on order and am considering whether to add a Stocks Rotor Meter as a factory fitted...

not just muck for straw deals but also by the straw trade generally

That's an interesting concept that may work if taking WC as fermented forage, but may not work if alkaline preserved (home n dry). The presence of green material in the sample will cause preservation problems so the legume would need to be combine ready at the same time as the cereal...
