The Importance of Proper Fallen Stock Disposal
Farmers in Pensby are responsible by law for the disposal of their own fallen stock. On-farm burial has been banned in Pensby since 2003 – this measure was implemented to protect public health and the environment. In fact, EU control regulations state in Article 21 that fallen stock must be collected, identified, and transported without ‘undue delay’.
The livestock industry in Pensby can be very confident in its ability to dispose of waste safely and sustainably by using experts like Martlands for its fallen stock management. This ensures compliance with all responsibilities under UK law.
