One issue is antibiotic resistance in animals and humans because of the way the link can be made. The other issue is that of disease control. Given the expansion in use of slurry tanks in recent years with greater amounts of slurry being spread, are there signs that it is assisting the spread of disease? There are some suggestions in the farming community and beyond that it is. I do not know the answer to it.
