Scottish survey re: "Protected Urea" - JHI, Get them telt!

PSQ

Just had a phone survey on behalf of the James Hutton Institute about investment, carbon audits and my attitude to possibly having to change to 'protected urea'.

Poor guy wasn't expecting a lecture about volatilisation not being an issue unless it's 30 degrees and high calcium soils; a Venn Diagram that doesn't include Scotland in the slightest.
So if anyone here gets a similar call, politely tell them to stick their un-scientific, expensive and nonsensical pipe dreams where they belong: up Kemira Yara CF's hoop.

[Edit to add: the interviewer was really nice, please don't be nasty to them. And the only reason the call went beyond 'Hello' was because it was the JHI, who ought to know better]
