Catchment Sensitive Farming and Wessex Water have produced a new, step-by-step guide to record-keeping in Nitrate Vulnerable Zones (NVZs) to help farmers with what can be a complicated and time-consuming task.

Written by Briony Burge of Creedy Associates and based on previous work with farmers, the guide will help you to meet cross compliance rules around NVZs, but it is always worth checking the full, annually-updated NVZ guidance from the government to ensure full compliance.
