Devon: Practical slurry and water management for dairy farms

Managing water effectively can have a significant impact on slurry storage, infrastructure costs and the efficiency of a dairy business.

Join us at AHDB Strategic Dairy Farm, Caulston Farm, where David Ball will present the findings from a detailed water and slurry management review of the farm.

Through a guided farm walk, we'll explore practical opportunities to separate clean and dirty water, reduce the volume of rainwater entering slurry stores and identify infrastructure improvements that could improve efficiency and support future compliance.

We will discuss practical solutions that can help businesses make better use of slurry storage, reduce unnecessary handling and prepare for future environmental legislation.

What you'll learn

• Practical ways to manage clean and dirty water
• Reducing rainwater entering slurry stores
• Identifying infrastructure improvements to improve water and slurry management
• Increasing effective slurry storage capacity
• Preparing for future environmental and slurry management requirements

Whether you're considering infrastructure improvements or simply looking for practical ideas to improve your existing infrastructure system, this event will provide valuable insights that can be applied on your own farm.

Refreshments and a light lunch will be provided at this meeting.
