NFU Bird Scarers Code of Practice

http://www.nfuonline.com/x5317.xml

Bird scarers and bird deterrents are essential to protect many crops including oilseed rape, fruit and field vegetables from damage by wild birds.  However, if used thoughtlessly they can seriously annoy and disturb the public, thus fuelling the pressure for strict legal controls or a ban on their use.  Just a few inconsiderate actions could threaten the ability of all growers to protect their crops in future. So please follow the code, which is designed to minimise public aggravation whilst allowing effective crop protection.

The code covers types of scarer; reducing the need for scarers; choosing scarers; tips on how to avoid causing a nuisance and ways to lessen potential danger with suggested safety precautions.
