Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Compliance with the Nitrates Directive and Implications for Ireland: Discussion (Resumed)

Dr. Elaine McGoff:

In terms of Teagasc and multispecies sward, protected urea and low emission slurry spreading, LESS, can I suggest that the committee puts that question directly to that agency and to others, such as the Department of agriculture, as to how effective those measures are for nitrogen?
