MNFU issues farmland reminder

People urged to act responsibly and follow guidelines

'Help to keep our farmers working and the Island fed' is the message the police are relaying from the Manx National Farmers' Union, as it reminds people of the guidelines for being on or near agricultural land.

You're asked to keep away from farmyards and buildings, avoid fields of young livestock and arable crops, and keep your dog on a lead and take litter and dog mess home with you.

The MNFU also says you must stay at least two metres away from all farm workers, leave gates as you find them and use hand sanitiser or gloves if you have to touch gates or stiles, and stick to paths wherever possible.
