[QUOTE="NoParticularPattern, post: 7636296, member: 50622"] i just find the climate check tool incredibly clunky. There’s questions like “how many kg of N as slurry are exported?” which are difficult to answer and require some proper working out. They give no indication of understanding the difference between separated slurry and not and didn’t seem to think that it did make a difference when we had our audit. Even though we know it does. The thing that I really disliked though was the expectation from the auditor that we should chase carbon footprint above all else. There was a suggestion they we should immediately go out and buy a dribble bar, stop feeding soya, start growing all sorts of fancy crops etc etc just to lower our footprint. And whilst I’m not saying we shouldn’t be lowering our CF, it has to be remembered that it cannot and should not be done to the detriment of the business as a whole. Otherwise there won’t be a business with a CF of any description. RT are a pain in the backside but at least they’ve got with the program and have produced an online portal. Even if it also suffers from the clunkiness which seems to plague agri software in general. [/QUOTE]
