What are regarded as appropriate cultivations?
Appropriate cultivations include:
- Deep loosening of the sub-soil to break plough or compaction pans
- Minimal disruption of the soil profile
- Timeliness of cultivations or grazing to ensure appropriate tilth and to avoid damage to existing structure
