Why reduce ammonia emissions?

Did you know that around 75% of ammonia emissions from agriculture come from livestock systems and 22% from fertiliser?  

Yara nitrate-based fertilisers have been made for farmers who want to reduce ammonia emission losses. The benefits are:

  • Low volatilisation losses. Nitrate-based fertiliser delivers 90% lower ammonia loss than urea on the majority of farms, established in EMEP emission factors.

  • A reliable solution.

Reducing Carbon Footprint
Fertiliser use is a major contributor to your farm’s greenhouse gas emissions. Switching to nitrate-based solutions is one of the simplest ways to reduce your farm’s impact on climate change.
