No 29111, Report Series from Agricultural Economics Research Institute

Abstract: The Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency of the National Institute of Public Health and the Environment (MNP-RIVM) publishes an Environmental Balance Sheet each year in accordance with the Environmental Management Act. Calculations using the Manure and Ammonia Model of ammonia emissions and other gaseous nitrogen losses form the basis of the figures contained in the publication. The large differences observed between this calculation and comparable calculations by Statistics Netherlands form the motivation for an analysis of the differences. This insight, supplemented with insight into the comparison of calculated and measured mineral levels in the manure, gave rise to a discussion on which starting points and calculation method were the most suitable as a basis for the Environmental Balance Sheet.
