Posted: Fri Apr 04, 2014 9:06 am
Just thought ide post this on here as im confused
This monday i was visiting farms regarding getting digs for yorkshire searchers i don't ring farms i travel every monday -tuesday
I was visiting farms surrounding the selby area i know alot of clubs have detected in Selby and regarding green waste the damage as been done.
But i got talking to a farmer in his kitchen while showing him our papers regarding our insurance and forum rules and search agreement i asked do you have green waste on your fields i was shocked with the responce i got
Farmers reply was .......
We had 4000 tones of green waste in stock piles in 4 fields also my brothers all have farms around me within a 4 mile radius all have stock piles of Green waste
Then in january 2014 we all get letters telling us if we spread the stock piles of green waste on our fields we could get prosecuted
after we have recieved the letter
Then we had to wait for it all been collected by the company that supplied us it...
I asked what was the reason ?
Reply was ...
Well apparently the green waste was contaminated with metal pieces and crushed kitchen units which contains dangourous chemicals to preserve it in its life time Also batteries / bulbs /curcuit boards
The farmer then sald we have had nothing since the stock piles were took away.
As far as we see it THE FARMER SALD the company that supply us the waste asn't told us exactly whats in the green waste and something must of happened for them to take the waste back
6 FARMS HAVE HAD STOCK PILES REMOVED SINCE JANUARY THAT THE FARMER KNOWS OF AND THE STOCK PILES HAVENT BEEN REPLACED
The farmer was then told we will be replacing the waste with proper green waste from a private waste management company
.....................................................
Does anyone know why there taking the stock piles back As a pertition worked - Are the companies starting to see that what there doing is wrong - are they desposing of waste thats dangourse that should not be in fields were our veg is grown
(as this happened in the area your detecting)
