Defra’s Nutrient Management Planning Tool is designed to help make nutrient planning simpler. The online tool has been updated to include a calculator that estimates the nutrients supplied by organic materials and their financial value.
Although supply remains stable, we know higher fertiliser prices and market volatility are making it harder for you to plan and budget. In this post, we’ll share tools and tips to help you plan nutrient use with more confidence.
We recently introduced the ‘existing manure storage capacity’ function to the Nutrient Management Planning Tool. The new functionality includes a calculation of existing manure storage capacity, giving users a clearer picture of the storage they already have in place.
Managing nutrients effectively is one of the most important jobs a farmer does. To make this easier, we’ve launched a new tool on GOV.UK.
Each month, we bring together the latest policy updates, funding opportunities, consultations, research and statistics, helping you stay informed about the issues that matter to you.
