Farmers urged to be vigilant after spate of hay bale fires

Firefighters are urging farmers to be vigilant after a spate of hay bale blazes in recent weeks.
There is no evidence to suggest the fires, which have caused thousands of tonnes of hay go up in smoke in the last two months, were arson but the Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service is still asking farmers to keep an eye out for possible arsonists.
Advice given to farmers is to split up large stacks of hay in case of arson, however a spokesman for the service said there is 'no intelligence' to suggest any of the fires have been arson.
