Yes, it can soon put your phosphate up to 4 and 5sNo supply issue, could possibly just be a decision to no longer use it or the soil sampling hasn’t allowed biosolids to be spread or stockpiled on that area. We are producing over 1000 ton a day out of sites across the NW
Do you cover North Yorkshire? Yo17 area
I’ve noticed that my neighbours that usually have it stockpiled, don’t have any this year. Is there a supply issue. We were one of the first to have it around here, many years ago, when you provided a spreading service as well.
Had some this spring, in two hits. They were mighty swift with delivery. Stopped burning it and increasing legislation about using it with roots and veg reducing potential land bank.
Apparently United Ultilies have the highest population to 'smallest' land bank available to them out of all the water companies. If that makes sense.
That’s good. I used to only be able to get it during the winter.Had some this spring, in two hits. They were mighty swift with delivery. Stopped burning it and increasing legislation about using it with roots and veg reducing potential land bank.

Really farmers should be paid to take their waste the nutrient content is a bonus . At the end of the day its their waste and we pay to get rid of our waste . If every farmer that uses bio solids stood up and said no we are not paying for it and a std price set for them to deliver and spread .
Trying to get farmers to stand together would be the big stumbling block .
Around here it costs 4-5 ton I think @18 ton maintenance dressing 80-90 ha most would like it if they got paid that per ha surely . Tin hat on ,

.....at the moment.Around here there is more demand than supply, hence Wessex Water charging for it. I don't know what Nutri-Bio charge for it in East Anglia where demand is much higher nor Thames where they have 12 million producers and a smaller land mass than United.
Wessex charge me £4/t delivered & spread for a N and P value of £10.55/t. My profit is the fertiliser value, trace elements and the organic matter. The down side is compaction, lost crop area from the heaps, PTEs and microplastics. I'm happy to take those risks.
Be even better if the bio solids was followed with a bacs payment instead of a bill wont it . .Around here there is more demand than supply, hence Wessex Water charging for it.
