The folder also provides detailed information on planning, environmental compliance, management, nutrition, veterinary health and assurance.



“We’ve received huge demand for this folder,” comments Nigel Penlington, BPEX’s environment programme manager. “This interest is really encouraging because it demonstrates that, in spite of all of the other financial pressures faced by producers, the construction of new buildings remains a priority.”  Nigel adds that it’s heartening to see that producers recognise the ultimate value in investing in new, more efficient structures.
