Small bale wrapping, prevent waste on smaller farms

If you have a small holding or small farm, hay bales and haylage are every bit as useful as they are on larger farms, but sometimes the large bales that are commonly available are just too big for the rate at which you use them.

Small bales are also much easier to handle without the need for specialised equipment and can be stacked for storage, making the best use of limited space.

You can now avoid waste by taking advantage of our small bale wrapping service, which is ideal for the smaller farm. This is just one of our many agricultural contracting services, which add up to a great help for farms with limited equipment and manpower resources.

Call us now on the number shown above or click in the header of any page to email us and start taking advantage of small bales straight away.

The nesting bird season in Britain is nearly over. Now's the time to think about your trees.

During the nesting season, all birds living in a tree are protected. No work can be carried out that would disturb the avian population. Luckily, evidence of birds is easy to spot, so not much special training is needed to assess the risk. However, if in doubt it is always safer to ask a qualified arborist to make sure you stay on the right side of the conservation laws.

Bats are protected during roost and hibernation. Signs of bats are a bit less obvious than birds, so if there is any suspicion of a roost in your tree, please check with us before taking any action.

Brooke Sstated Management follows the best practice guidelines as adopted by many local authorities:
Timing of works

• To reduce the chance of disturbing a bat roost, it is important to avoid the summer (breeding season) and winter (hibernation) months.
• Works to trees with potential for bats is best done from late August to early
• October when young bats are mobile and on the wing, female bats are
• unlikely to be pregnant and the hibernation season has not yet begun.
• March to April is also a suitable time, though consideration should also be
• given for nesting birds as these are also protected by law.
• Crown pruning and minor tree works can also be completed over the winter
• months. The removal of potential roost sites during this time should be
• avoided, as some bat species hibernate in trees.

• Keep tree work to a minimum retaining all potential roosts where possible.
• A precautionary inspection of the tree(s) by the tree work contractor looking for signs of bats should be carried out before starting work. This should include an inspection of all holes and niches using a torch and preferably an endoscope. If bats or signs of bats are found, no work should start and English Nature should be contacted for further advice.
• Where possible, avoid cross cutting in proximity to cavities or hollows.
• Limbs with internal fissures should be pruned carefully to maintain integrity of features as potential roost sites.
• Any sections felled containing cavities should be lowered carefully and left on the ground (preferably for 24 hours) with the openings clear, allowing anything inside an opportunity to escape.
• Split limbs that are under tension may need to be wedged open to prevent their closure when pressure is released, potentially trapping bats
