To be fair I can see his point too

Tonnes of rotting corn dumped on my doorstep is making my wife cry

Rob Shaw says people refuse to visit his home because of how rancid it smells

Sounds like EA have given them a permit to clamp there, hence, tough tits.

Good going to dump 1/5mt of rotting corn in a day. Bit of artistic license.

Think this probably goes back along way
still not very bright of the council to give permission

Has there always been a farm there?

I find the smell of silage pleasant and flies don't touch it. I find it hard to believe a company has put a heap there on bare dirt.

The bloke clearly has quite some property and is making up some spiel to get into the news and try to get the council to do something about it.

200,000 ton has his calculator battery gone wrong
would that be 10,000 acre of maize?

Its not rotting , its silage , lovely smell

Maize silage can be an irresistable attraction for rats in my experience. A clamp that size could be a neighbours nightmare......

I've seen bigger mole hills than that 200.000 ton clamp , let's not add to the exaggeration

"My wife goes to bed crying every night because of how bad it is."

Must. Not. Take. Out of context. Must. Resist. Childish dig.

Are you saying that maize silage does not attract rats?

I agree but it could be mitigated by having a proper clamp. I cannot see how in this day and age putting silage on bare dirt is legal- how do you control and collect the effluent? It should be in a proper clamp and done properly, particularly if we are talking biogas which is a serious business. The noise of the CHP would be my concern.

Also the farmer or operator of the site could screen the site with trees very cheaply. It pays to keep the locals on side.

No it would yes , but that would apply to the thousands of farms that grow it also ,

The smell of silage is one thing, but how are they storing and controlling the stench from the effluent?

Do you get much effluent from maize silage? It’s usually fairly high DM stuff.

I thought the heap was probably nearer 2000t (certainly not 200,000!) and presumably a temporary store if it’s clamped in a field?

 

[Bald Rick]

Slaphead is having a laugh if he thinks that "heap" is 200,000 tonnes.

This is our maize and we estimate about 7-8,000 tonnes (goes off to the left of pic for about 50m plus)

And yes, that is a loading shovel.

Interesting... View over AD plant whilst eating ....

I think the guy is looking for some sort of compensation, why else would he mention the previously desirable location of and the value of his property.

I would say he wants the AD plant to buy his house (at his valuation)
