Paragraph 30 The application of fertilisers
A farmer may (subject to sub-paragraph (2) below) apply organic waste to guaranteed set-aside land if that organic waste was produced on land which he farms as a single unit with the set-aside land and he satisfies the Minister before applying the waste to the land that were he prevented from so applying it—
he could not reasonably otherwise deal with it except by applying it to the remainder of his holding; and
such application to the remainder of his holding would result in an application of a greater concentration of nitrogen than is compatible with good agronomic or environmental practice.
and observes such conditions or limitations (if any) as are imposed by the Minister in relation to any application so permitted.
The application to any agricultural parcel in any 12 month period of organic waste with a nitrogen content greater than 250 kilogrammes per hectare shall not be permitted.
