A new tool to assess nitrogen and phosphorus flow in agriculture
MITERRA-EUROPE is a new tool that models the amount of nitrogen and phosphorus, among other key pollutants, used in agriculture across all 27 Member States at regional, country and EU-27 levels. It can be used to calculate the effects of different strategies to minimise excess pollution. Many regions in the EU-27 use more nitrogen and phosphorus in agriculture than is required.
