Run-off and erosion recording

FARMERS need to record any erosion or field run-off of water and soil following recent and sudden heavy downpours of rain, says cross compliance technical advisor Simon Draper.

The Soil Protection Review is a cross compliance document that must be made available for inspection and be updated every year or more often if necessary. Simon advises that any update should be made on the appropriate cropping page. He said: "In the remarks section of the review document the field and a summary of any action taken to prevent a re-occurrence of the erosion or run-off should be identified. Options are listed in the Cross Compliance Guidance for Soil Management booklet."
