# Commission Decision of 2 February 2007 approving the 2007 technical action plan for the improvement of agricultural statistics (notified under document number C(2006) 7081) (2007/84/EC), Division Title of the action: Nutrient balances — Regional

Extent: E+W+S+N.I.

EU contribution: EUR 135 000
Schedule for the work: April-June 2007
Short description of the action:
The action will aim to reduce costs by combining surveys to improve efficiency, to improve quality of soil nutrient balance estimates by improving survey data and by developing nutrient fixation coefficients. It also aims at reducing the burden on respondents.
It will involve considering and testing out how best to integrate and develop existing sources to provide the required information, including changing the survey of fertiliser practice, the farm practice survey, and the pesticides use survey.
There will be further research to develop the coefficient data that cannot be collected by the farm based survey.
