Subsidy for central washing stations: working together for cleaner ditch water
At a central washing station, farmers can clean their spraying equipment without contaminated wash water ending up in the ditch water. This helps them contribute to cleaner surface water and a future-proof business operation.
The province reimburses up to 80% of the costs for a new central washing station or adapting an existing one. By sharing the use of one washing station, the costs per entrepreneur remain lower and the impact on water quality is greater. Subsidies can also be applied for an advisor who assists with the application or collaboration.
