*waiting for call back re: amount raised, extra info*

A GROUP of young Hampshire farmers held a 'dung drop' to raise money for charity.

The annual event organised by Romsey Young Farmers involves delivering manure to homes in the town and surrounding villages.

The event at Brickhill Farm, Ower, was organised to try and raise £2,000 for Macmillan Cancer Support.

The group, made up of members aged 10 to 26, were selling the manure for charity at £50 per tractor bucket full and £3 for a 25kg sack.
