The Ministry for the Environment (MfE) has prepared information sheets for various farm sectors, on the Action for Healthy Waterways Package. However, they did not produce one for arable. FAR has compiled a Ground Rules newsletter listing the actions that arable farmers may need consider, based on the MfE sheets for the dairy, pastoral and horticulture sectors. Please read this carefully. It is likely that not all actions on the list will be relevant to your farm, much will depend on if and how you incorporate animals into your system.
