Farmers to begin navigating Fertiliser Register regulations

By providing farmers with online calculators, a better outcome will be obtained where farmers can self-regulate and make sure they stay within their fertiliser allowances
Farmers to begin navigating Fertiliser Register regulations

It’s disappointing from a farmer's perspective that there is no online calculator available either from Teagasc or from the Department of Agriculture to allow a farmer to navigate all of these complexities.

Farmers will have received letters in the post this past week announcing the start up of the fertiliser register. 

The register was on the cards for a number of years and as such it doesn’t come as a surprise, but is in truth an inconvenience at best or for those more discommoded it’s an annoyance. The annoyance springs from having to adhere to more oversight and yet more regulations, annoyance at having to adhere to another deadline, and annoyance for those not computer literate at having to engage an advisor to sign up to the register.
