This includes the River Teme catchment and parts of the River Wye catchment.

Pesticides, herbicides, sheep dip and slug pellets will be collected from the farm free of charge for safe disposal.

“This free and confidential scheme aims to reduce the risk of pollution and safeguard raw water quality and we are advising farmers to take advantage now as unwanted pesticides can be costly to dispose of,” said Kathryn Williams, director at Davis Meade Property Consultants.

“To take up this offer you will need to register with Welsh Water before September 30, 2019.

“Welsh Water will then confirm if you are eligible and will pass your details to a third party contractor to ensure your confidentiality.

“The contactor will arrange a collection date with you which will be between October 2019 and February 2020,” she explained.
