Agenda | 2 |
Nitrogen losses | 3 |
Nitrogen... Essential for crops | 4 |
But brings challenges to farmers, the environment and society | 5 |
Nitrogen losses in agriculture | 6 |
Ammonia and legislation | 7 |
Agriculture accounts for 88% of UK ammonia emissions | 8 |
The UK government is legally obliged to reduce ammonia emissions by 8% by 2020 and by 16% by 2030, compared to 2005 levels | 9 |

Introducing Limus® | 21 |
Why is Limus® the most effective urease inhibitor available? | 22 |
There are many different types or urease enzymes | 23 |
Limus® is the only urease inhibitor with TWO active ingredients, blocking a wider range of urease enzymes | 24 |
