What should you expect from an inspection?

摘要

John Bume leads teams of inspectors across England, which carried out more than 11,000 inspections in 2013. Cross-compliance breaches were found on just over 800 of these. However, not all inspections carry a cross-compliance check. Farmers Weekly putsome questions to Mr Bume. Some are carried out for cross-compliance, linked to the Single Payment Scheme, to check farmers are meeting EU regulations they need to for the scheme. Livestock inspections are focused on identification and traceability tohelp reduce the likelihood and impact of disease outbreaks.
