[QUOTE="thesilentone, post: 7441565, member: 6194"] When you drill into detail, you must tell the whole story. In Denmark, regulation is much tighter on NVZ timings, and ammounts, much tighter than the EU standards, and when you can and can't spread Nitrogen is also regulated by ambient temperature. So, for plant absorption of N to be optimised the temperature must not drop below x for x days. The other thing is, the Danes take it very seriously and stick to the rules. In addition, they also have strict regulation on slurry storage and application, they have a ' three strikes and you're out rule ' on towers and lagoons using a wet bung to stop N evaporation to the atmosphere. All new tanks have had a roof fitted for years (part of the regulations). Lots of time, energy and money has also gone into stopping the N pollution of watercourses and run-off. We should stop looking for the negatives on CO2 emissions and N pollution and start to embrace the positives. [/QUOTE]
