Hog barn odour clash tests Manitoba Farm Practices Board
The Manitoba Farm Practises Protection Board faces its first legal challenge after Dutch Barns on an 8500 head feeder operation near Oak River resisted a board order to install synthetic lagoon covers and upgrade odour controls. Local residents and investors say the board’s standards are too stringent, while officials and farmers say enforcement and follow through are lacking and that plastic covers may become industry practice despite debate.
