[QUOTE="DrWazzock, post: 8197477, member: 2119"] How does concreting a yard make any real difference to pollution caused by filling a sprayer on that yard? If I fill the sprayer on gravel or soil and I splash a bit then surely it takes about 10 years to work its way down the profile into groundwater by which time it’s degraded and safe as in a biobed. If I concrete the sprayer filling area then surely I need to provide a tank or something to collect any run off if there’s any point in concreting it all then I need a bio bed to process that run off. Isn’t it all rather unnecessary? The amount I spill in the yard is negligible anyway. Most gets sprayed into the crop/ soil. Really does make me wonder if a hell of a lot of money gets spent for very little gain. [/QUOTE]
