This, exactly. If farmers started doing this enough, it might make the council sit up and realise that it's not appropriate to have them in the middle of fields. Get the details and do it properly, but shut it for every time you need to "in the interests of public safety".
I have a feeling a Risk Assessment would outweigh a Councils " Standard Operating Procedure" and form filling in a Court any day of the week.
Even though you don't need to do it, it's common sense.
Working equipment and the public in the same place is a recipe for disaster.
