Developed By The Cull Potato Disposal BMP Committee May 22, 1997
These Best Management Practices (BMP's) were developed in response to L.D. 1540, "An Act Concerning Potato Blight Eradication and the Disposal of Cull Potatoes" which prohibits uncontrolled cull potato piles between June 10 and October 1 of any year. These BMP's are designed to provide guidance for acceptable cull potato disposal methods which address both pathogen and water quality concerns.
