Guidance: Sewage sludge on farmland: code of practice

The sewage sludge code of practice is for anyone who produces, supplies or uses sewage sludge, and anyone who owns or manages farmland where it is used.

It helps to make sure that when you produce, supply or use sewage sludge you:

• follow good agricultural practice
• maintain the long-term viability of the soil
• avoid public nuisance and water pollution
• protect human, animal and plant health
