Nitrates pollution from agriculture is still a serious problem in the EU, take a look at the implementation report for the period 2016-2019 https://t.co/vWroeKonwu

[European Commission @EU_Commission]

Nitrates are still causing harmful pollution to water in the EU, based on our new Report on the implementation of the Nitrates Directive.

The pace of change over the last decade is not enough to prevent damage.

We will act to improve compliance with the directive.

[Dept of Agriculture, Food and the Marine @agriculture_ie]

Minister @McConalogue has engaged with @teagasc to plan a fertiliser alternative strategy that aims to maintain farm output while reducing the use of chemical fertiliser and deal with the rising cost and availability of fertilisers internationally.
