[QUOTE="Grass And Grain, post: 7664645, member: 23184"] Just received the email, with summery of the main changes... [B]Key changes in your sector Combinable Crops & Sugar Beet[/B] [LIST] [*][B]REMOVED[/B] A requirement to leave livestock buildings for five weeks between cleaning them and using them to store grain. [*][B]SIMPLIFIED[/B] Grain trailer ID needs to be clearly identifiable and on at least the rear and one side of the trailer, rather than all three sides as currently required. Trailer ID is only necessary when transporting your grain into a third-party intake. [*][B]NEW[/B] All farms with workers must have a written Health and Safety policy – this is a slight advance on the legal baseline which only applies to businesses with more than five employees. Given high fatality figures in the industry Red Tractor believes it is essential to check policies are in place and communicated to workers. [*][B]REVISED[/B] Many of the requirements of vermin control standards align with the Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use (CRRU) Code of Practice which aims to minimise the exposure of wildlife to toxic rodenticides. This means that Red Tractor members can continue to buy rodenticide that they would otherwise be prohibited from purchasing without completing additional training. [*][B]CLARIFIED [/B]Moisture meter calibration can be carried out on farm using reference samples [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
