In the heart of Scotland’s agricultural landscape, farmers face numerous challenges, one of which is the management of fallen stock. Whether it’s due to illness, injury, or natural causes, dealing with deceased animals can be a sensitive and complex issue. At Martlands Waste Management, we understand the importance of handling fallen stock Scotland responsibly and efficiently. As registered collectors and disposers with the Fallen Stock Company, we are here to support you in maintaining your farm’s health and compliance with regulations.
Understanding Fallen Stock
Fallen stock refers to livestock that has died on a farm or during transportation. This can include cattle, sheep, pigs, and other farm animals. The management of fallen stock is crucial not only for animal welfare but also for public health and environmental protection. In Scotland, there are strict regulations governing the disposal of fallen stock to prevent disease outbreaks and contamination.
Farmers must act quickly when faced with fallen stock to ensure compliance with these regulations. Improper disposal can lead to serious consequences, including fines and potential legal action. That’s where Martlands Waste Management comes in—providing a reliable solution for farmers across Scotland.
