Q&A nitrogen limits: Do you need to submit December nitrates form?

It is hugely important for individual farmers to check that they are not exposed in relation to this matter, says Patrick Rohan, chair of the ICMSA’s Farm and Rural Affairs Committee.
He has called on all farmers in excess of the 170kgs limit, and who do not have a derogation to do so, to be aware of the December 31, 2016 deadline for submission of relevant forms to the Nitrates Section of the Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine.
