Let us set up your effluent pond management

Dairy farm effluent management life cycle.Use our expertise and knowledge to take the pressure off yourself and let us design an efficient low cost effluent management plan for your farm.

As well as designing a plan we also offer on-going monitoring and continued support because you know that annual effluent maintenance is a very important part of the farm lifecycle.

 

Good management begins with:

 

1. Regular cleaning of the stone traps, as often as every 2/3 days if required

 

2. Checking for excessive build up of solids

 

3. Checking for pipe blockages regularly

 

4. Controlling weed growth in and around ponds by spraying with a herbicide
