N&P statements now available for farmers 

Earlier this year, the department informed all farmers of proposed changes regarding excretion rates of young bovines and the possibility for dairy farmers to opt-in to gain recognition for managing the crude protein in the concentrates fed to their dairy cows.

Cattle only nitrogen and phosphorus statements (N&P statements) for January 1, to June 30, 2024, are now available online.

These statements are based on the current excretion rates for livestock as set out in the Nitrates Regulations.
