Lambing Season Case Study - 1

Lambing Season Addfield understands that lambing is the main harvest for the hill farmer, usually generating two-thirds of annual income, so we make sure our machines are a worthy investment by assuring farmer’s that they are receiving the highest quality incineration machinery. Clients overview As a farmer, deciding when the lambing season will entirely depend on your knowledge of the land and the market you are working in. It is common knowledge that good supervision and adequate shelter is vital, whether a farmer decides to lamb indoors or out is entirely up to how they weigh out the pros and cons. It is also important to note that adequate grazing and an ample supply of the mother’s milk are fundamental to a lamb’s survival; mother’s milk is the only protection a lamb has from hypothermia. Lambs had been arriving earlier than expected in 2015 with reports of unusual birthing patterns and survival chances reduced. This was likely to be a result of the mild winter across the UK which had caused confusion amongst the sheep who have adopted a seasonal breeding pattern. Reasons for lamb mortality include rejection, predation, exposure, starvation, trauma in birth process, low lamb vigour, infectious disease and functional disorders Advantages of using Addfield Incinerators The Benefits of an Addfield Incineration Unit include: • • • • • EfW – Energy from Waste Volume of what is being incinerated is dramatically reduced Odour and smoke free when using an Addfield machine Requires minimum land Reduced greenhouse emissions compared to other disposal methods Fitting into the plan Production has increased by 3% between 2013 and 2014 so a rise in carcass disposal is inevitable. An Addfield incineration machine will pay for itself over a short period of time and also offers all farmers an increase in bio-security. Which incinerator?

This is vital in preventing the transmission of infectious diseases which is significantly increased when external disposal companies are visiting several farms.
