I had a visit from Aberdeenshire County Coucil Food Hygiene Dep't today. It lasted under an hour including a cuppa and a blether. The young lass was polite, informative and knowledgeable. I just thought that it was appropriate to give a wee bit of praise to a department that takes a bit of stick from folk at times.
Major thing I took from the visit was to remember to keep all the labels with batch numbers from my bought in feedstuffs including buckets and blocks.
Major questions were;
what do you do with muck generated from sheds, (hot composted and spread back on land)
what do you do with plastic, (recycle through work recycling bins)
is your trailer clean before and after mart visits, (home pressure washer and mart one)
how are your feedstuffs kept clean and fresh and uncontaminated, (stored on pallets away from drips and doors)
what are your vermin control measures? (wormed, vaccinated and neutered feral cat population).
We had to show invoices for bought in feeds, medicine book with batch numbers and movement book.
Pretty trouble free and painless.
