Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Carbon Sequestration and Storage in Agriculture: Discussion

Mr. David Hagan:

Yes, we are using nitrogen on it. As I said, we are using 70 kg of nitrogen. What we do, though, is put the nitrogen on in the spring and at the back end of the year when the legumes are not as active and where they are not fixing as much nitrogen. We are augmenting those plants and not causing as much harm.
