A family have moved in near us who have around 8 horses. I vaguely know the bloke and have chatted to him about the possibility of taking away his horse muck for him.
My question is whether horse muck is any good for anything. I have no issue with storing it for a year or 2 before use to allow it to rot, but is it any good then ?
I have about half an acre ploughed up where I grow veg and potatoes, and 9 acres of grass land which I graze with sheep and/or mow for hay.
Should I charge to take it away ? I know some in our area have to pay.
I sort of see it as an opportunity to get in with the guy, he has expressed an interest in buying hay from me which would suit me down to the ground, and he will doubtless need some paddock maintenance, chain harrowing etc, which I am well positioned to provide.
Any thoughts or experiences are welcome.
