Farming Connect has recently launched its new interactive air quality tool online here: https://businesswales.gov.wales/farmingconnect/improving-air-quality. The tool provides advice on the actions a typical Welsh farm can take to improve air quality and the subsequent benefits to the business.
The tool covers the following subtopics:
- Air treatment and muck drying
- Regulatr scraping
- Switching from straight urea fertiliser
- Extending the growing season
- Precision slurry spreading
- Wasing the collection yard
- Efficient use of protein in the diet
- Covering the slurry store
It also provides further information on how to access Farming Connect services relating to the topic and relevant Rural Development Programme grants.
