Dear Stuart
Thanks for your email and patience whilst we found out the relevant information about your enquiry.
This is something that Farm Assurance governs and is not something we would condone. All of our Development Group farms receive an independent annual carbon footprint assessment which covers and governs the spreading of manure, fertilizer and organic waste.
If you have any other concerns please don’t hesitate to get back in touch. You can call our free phone number on 0800 63 62 62 option 5 or simply reply to this email.
We appreciate you taking the time to contact us and look forward to seeing you in store again soon.
Kind regards
