The British Survey of Fertiliser Practice

The British Survey of Fertiliser Practice, funded jointly by the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, the Scottish Executive Environment and Rural Affairs Department and AIC, is an independent annual report of fertiliser application rates providing data for farmers and environmentalists, regulators and the industry. It also provides information on lime use and organic manure application. The Survey shows generally good fertiliser practice in Britain with mineral fertilisers being used closely in line with accepted recommendations.
