Feb. 2017. 1.1. Plant cover and catch crops A catch crop, usually rape, oil radish or ryegrass, is sown for collecting nitrogen during the autumn and winter, and must be incorporated into the soil in the spring and is always followed by a spring sown crop. There are two levels of catch crops 1

If animal manure corresponding to more than 80 kg N/ha are applied, you have to establish catch crops in at least 14% of the catch crop base area (see below). If animal manure corresponding to less than 80 kg N/ha are applied, you have to establish catch crops in at least 10% of the catch crop base area (see below). You must always have catch crops in at least 4% of the area, irrespective of having 100% winter crops. There is a release of nitrogen from the incorporated catch crop, which has to be subtracted the N quota of the following crop: 25 kg N/ha if you have 14% catch crops and 17 kg N/ha if you have 10%. (see example below) Catch crop base area The percentage of area with catch crops is calculated from the catch crop base area, i.e., area with the following crops: Cereals (winter or spring), peas, spring or winter rape, faba beans, maize, mustard or sunflower. Table 1. DK norms for yield, fertilizer application and catch crop area. From (NaturErhvervstyrelsen 2016) Crop Effect Must on next the crop effect of previou s crop Coarse sandy (below 5 percent clay), JB 1 or 3, not irrigated Fine sandy 5-10 percent clay, not irrigated, JB 2 or 4 Below 10 percent clay, irrigated.

1.2 N quota / N norms Table 2. DK norms for fertilizer application. Extracted from Table 1 in Vejledning om gødsknings- og harmoniregler, (NaturErhvervstyrelsen 2016) Table 1. DK norms for fertilizer application, 2016/17, NaturErhvervstyrelsen (2016) Crop Winter precipitation / N prognosis The above mentioned standards are corrected (by region) for winter precipitation; corrections are given just before the new season, and are made on the presumption that very wet winters leave less mineral soil N for the new season. This correction, referred to as N-prognosis, is based on 150 measurements of N-min in the Square Grid Net for Nitrate Investigation in Denmark, and associated model calculations. Harmony rules Effect Must the on next effect of crop previous crop be included Coarse sandy (below 5 percent clay), JB 1 or 3, not irrigated Fine sandy 5-10 percent clay, not irrigated, JB 2 or 4 Below 10 percent clay, irrigated. JB 1-4 The harmony rules prescribe maximum amount of animal manure to be applied per ha. According to the EU Nitrate Directive, the general maximum level is 170 kg N/ha. Only France is following this general rule; other countries have got exceptions for cattle farm allowing up to 230 kg N/ha providing a minimum proportion of the area is grassland or fodder crops.

2. Rules related to extension of the animal production Ib Sillebak Kristensen, Dept. of Agroecology, Foulum, Aarhus University. Foulum, Feb. 2017 The written material about the rules to follow if a farmer is applying for an extension of his production is in Danish on the homepage of Ministry of Environment (http://www.husdyrgodkendelse.dk). An English summary of important parts is given here in part II. When a farmer wants to extend the animal production and send an application requirements concerning ammonia volatilization, phosphorus surplus, and nitrate leaching have to be considered. These requirements are shortly described below 2.1 Ammonia volatilization The environmental assessment is carried out in three steps: General requirements Buffer zone requirements Requirements related to other sensitive areas than those included in buffer zones. Buffer zone requirements Experiments have shown that deposition of ammonia decrease with the distance from the stable from where it was emitted. 8 Deposition, kg N/ha (9 weeks) 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Buffer zone I Buffer zone II 0 0 200 400 600 800 1000 1200 Distance from stable, m Figure 1. Ammonia decrease with distance from stable emission. 9

Two buffer zones have been defined: Distance to vulnerable/sensitive areas < 300 m = buffer zone I Distance to vulnerable/sensitive areas 300-1000 = buffer zone II Buffer zone I: No increase in ammonia emission is allowed Buffer zone II: - If more than 2 farms (applying farm + more than 1) are in the zone emissions may increase by a maximum of 0.3 kg N/ha. Other requirements - If 2 farms (applying farm + 1) are in the zone emissions may increase by a maximum of 0.5 kg N/ha. - If only the applying farm is in the zone emissions may increase by a maximum of 0.7 kg N/ha. If other sensitive areas or plant species than those included in buffer zone requirements, the municipality can add special requirements. 2.2.

Figure 2. Map indicating sensitive and protected areas in Denmark, incl. buffer zone I and II, see http://arealinformation.miljoeportal.dk/distribution/ 2.3 Phosphorus application Requirements for P are based on calculations of P surplus (input with manure removed with harvested crops) in the present situation compared to the applied situation. The max. application in 2017 is 30-43 kg P/ha/year (Thysen 2017) The application are depending on which P class the farm is situated in (see map below) Table 9. P application dependent of soil P-status. (Thysen 2017) Phosphorus value 1) (Pt) Less than 3 Requirements for P norm-application Max. application can be increased by 8 kg P/ha per Pt-unit below Pt=3 3 to 4 Max. application can be increased by 2 kg P/ha per Pt-unit below Pt=3 1) Pt is a value expressing the part of the P, which is dissolved in soil water, and therefore potential leaching risk. 2.4. Instruments (Virkemidler) for reducing phosphorus leaching/runoff Increase the area (bye more land) More efficient feeding 11

2.5. Nitrate leaching surface water In year 2019 a new regulation for nitrate leaching will be introduced. Until 2019 the nitrate leaching on farm level, i.e., average leaching in kg N/ha, is calculated with model www.farm-n.dk In Danish see (Vinther et al. 2007). In English see tab= documentation after Farm-N > English > Demo login Table 10. Nitrate classes, in Danish se http://www2.mst.dk/wiki/husdyrvejledning.nitrat%20%28overfladevand%29.ashx#husdyrvejledning.nitrat-overfladevand- Vurdering_FarmN_18: Reduction potential (%) of the nitrate on its way from root zone to surface water: Very sensitive or vulnerable area Medium sensitive or vulnerable area Other areas 0-50 0.7 LSU/ha. Nitrate class 3 51-75 0.91 LSU/ha. Nitrate class 2 76-100 1.4 LSU/ha 1.19 LSU/ha Nitrate class 1 1.4 LSU/ha 1.4 LSU/ha 1.4 LSU/ha 1.4 LSU/ha 1.4 LSU/ha 12 Figure 4. Nitrate classes in Denmark. Se

Distribution of nitrate classes Requirements for the nitrate classes: : Nitrate class 1: Nitrate class 2: Nitrate class 3: The leaching (kg N/ha) must not exceed the leaching at general harmony rules; i.e., the leaching that takes place from animal manure corresponding to 1.4 AU (DE) for pig manure or 1.7 AU (DE) for cattle manure. The leaching (kg N/ha) must not exceed the leaching that will take place at 85 % of general harmony rules; i.e., the leaching that takes place from animal manure corresponding to 1.2 AU (DE) for pig manure or 1.4 AU (DE) for cattle manure. The leaching (kg N/ha) must not exceed the leaching that will take place at 65 % of general harmony rules; i.e., the leaching that takes place from animal manure corresponding to 0.9 AU (DE) for pig manure or 1.1 AU (DE) for cattle manure. The leaching (kg N/ha) must not exceed the leaching that will take place at 50 % of general harmony rules; i.e., the leaching that takes place from animal manure corresponding to 0.7 AU (DE) for pig manure or 0.85 AU (DE) for cattle manure. Example with a pig farm where fields are in different nitrate classes; 25 % of the area in nitrate class 3 and 75 % in nitrate class 0: The leaching (kg N/ha) from this farm must not exceed the leaching that will take place at a pig manure load corresponding to 0.7x0.25 + 1.4x0.75 = 1.225 AU. Nitrate class 3 (0,7 AU/ha) (1.4 AU/ha) (1.4 AU/ha) (1.4 AU/ha) If the area is classified as a nitrate sensitive groundwater area, the nitrate concentration in the water leaving the root zone must not increase, if the concentration in the present situation is more than 50 mg/l.
