Teagasc Environment specialist, Tim Hyde, is on this week’s Beef Edge podcast to outline the current changes to the nitrates regulations, what it means for farmers and the future changes coming down the line.
The recent changes to the nitrates regulations will have an impact on all farms in Ireland.
From 2023, soil samples are required for all farms stocked above 130kg/ha grassland stocking rate (GSR) and all arable ground.
Tim explains that the permitted slurry spreading dates have also changed and that all slurry must be applied by October 1, 2023.
Low-emission slurry spreading (LESS) is mandatory on all farms with a grassland stocking rate of:
- 150kg/ha + from 2023;
- 130kg/ha + from 2024; and,
- 100kg/ha + from 2025.
Tim also discusses the requirements for a farm with a grassland stocking rate over 130 kg/ha and a farm with grassland stocking rate >170kg/ha (non-derogation).
