If manure is close to production areas, there is a risk that it will contaminate produce by runoff or wind spread. When assessing your farm's risk, factors to consider are the amount of manure present, crop location (downhill and/or downwind) from source, likelihood of runoff or leaching, physical barriers present, and how storage piles/facilities are protected.
