New Clean Air Tool helps farmers cut ammonia emissions

The online tool gives Welsh farmers tips and advice to cut ammonia emissions
Farmers in Wales are being encouraged to use a new online tool that helps them reduce ammonia emissions.
The Clean Air Tool has been launched by industry scheme Farming Connect, which is funded by the Welsh government.
The free-to-use online tool gives practical advice on steps farmers can take to lower their farm's emissions.
Among the measures covered are methods of storing and spreading slurry and manure, tips on spreading fertiliser and changes to livestock diets.
The tool has been developed in response to a commitment in the Welsh government’s Clean Air Plan to give farmers new advice on how they can lower emissions.
