Point of interest for anyone thinking of digging farmyard manure into their plot. It seems manure contaminated with aminopyralid (weedkiller) is still putting in an appearance.

Yep two of the local vegetable growers with a large patch of ground got hit earlier in the year. This one could run as it takes some years to work itself out of the manure (think 4 years for the manure to rot down).
Right pain.
