West Berkshire Council is considering a new application in West Ilsley.

Rowles Farm Partnership has applied for permission to install four fertiliser tanks and containment bund at land west Of Cold Harbour Cottages at Rowles Farm in West Ilsley.

The GRP fertiliser tanks have been designed to be positioned in a location that is central to the farm, optimising machinery and labour resources to be more economically viable for the farm.

The applicant says the use of liquid fertiliser will have a positive environmental effect as it requires less machinery, human contact and environmental exposure.

The liquid can be stored in the GRP tanks, removing the need for bag disposal and plastic waste.

The council is due to announce its decision by October 21.
