Yes, not a speck of dust..............up till now
Pulling fertilizer out of thin air with solar power
Nitricity has put together an experimental plasma reactor that uses solar electricity to produce competitively priced, environmentally clean, nitrogen fertilizer. Their onsite fertilizer production eliminates emissions from transporting fertilizers, and provides a viable alternative to fossil...

This looks interesting.
Perhaps the government ought to be subsidising these to every farm.

Imagine if they had succeeded last year on getting it banned

Hopefully they will be a thing of the past shortly .
Doubly disappointing when they have ”got at” Dr Ian Richards and the team at BASIS to produce the Annual FACTS assessment a couple of years ago that bashed urea in the name of saving the planet. All agronomists keeping their FACTS Qualified Advisor status had to sit that exam.

What annoys me is when I've been offered AN from other companies and when I've inquired about what it is, I've been told it's "UK produced" so unless there's someone In a garage somewhere making it breaking bad style, between batches of crystal meths than it must be nitram but it's always been at imported prices. How can that be right???
I've even had it on farm and when I've asked for spreader settings I've been told it's UK produced but when I ask is it nitram there's been a muttering at the other end of the phone and they've said that nitram settings would work ok!!!!!
Been stood out in the rain
I remember that aswell. I’m going to post an inflammatory tweet about it all,Doubly disappointing when they have ”got at” Dr Ian Richards and the team at BASIS to produce the Annual FACTS assessment a couple of years ago that bashed urea in the name of saving the planet.

I remember getting a call from someone very high up int he NFU about the urea thing, said it would need to be policed by red tractor if we were to keep it!

Wonder how that would work on non RT farms
It pee'd me off, we all know the science is flawed. Why weren’t they fighting it properly instead of just pandering and making us spend a load of money on formaldeyde on the stuff inhibitors).Wonder how that would work on non RT farms
the select committee was headed up by an agronomist, supposedly independent, who when you google his name is appears on many articles sponsored by CF and on their website. Why isn’t this kind of stuff called out.
I too had discussions with NFU who were adamant that RT would have to act as inspectors to get any retention of more limited use of Urea.
RT is embedded in NFU and Governemnt thinking as the body that enforces compliance (the Policemen) That we have to pay for. The ultimate coercion on the cheap
