| I'm sure you must be aware of
the problems experienced by allotment holders last year due to the use of
manure contaminated by a persitent herbicide called aminopyralid. Information
has been collated about this problem from the links on this page http://glallotments.co.uk/ACManure.aspx
Just to update on the latest re aminopyralid contamination in case you would like to provide updates on your website or to allotment holders in your area. The latest infomation re manure contamination is posted on my website here http://glallotments.co.uk/Manure7.aspx I have also sent out a email for circulation by everyone I know that has been affected which is here http://glallotments.co.uk/Documents/contaminated manure alert.pdf which you may find useful to circulate to allotment holders in your area. It is particularly important that gardeners be aware of the need for caution when obtaining manure in light of the fact that the government are now considering reinstating the licence that was temporarily suspended last year. As this is a concern to many gardeners you may wish to publicise an a epetition that has been started here http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/aminopyralidban/ I am posting updates as I get them on my blog http://glallotments.blogspot.com/ just on case you want to keep a watching brief.
