Dairy farmer fined $103,500 for effluent discharge, storing silage near water

According to sentencing notes published in January, the company and Berendt faced the same four charges, related to the management of silage and effluent on the farm on Kākāriki Road, Eketāhuna.
About 300 cows are milked on the farm, which had consents for discharging effluent and storing silage refuse.
However, effluent could not be allowed to enter surface water or encroach within 20 metres of watercourses. The silage refuse had similar rules.
Horizons Regional Council officers found a myriad of issues when visiting Huka View multiple times between October 2017 and 2018.
Silage refuse was once found two metres from a flowing stream and was still there a year later, despite Berendt being told to move it.
