Project Details
Description
In this project activities are clustered in regard to models that have been developed to provide the national government with information about the evaluation of the manure policy. In addition, the models are used by local authorities and other organizations to answer specific questions. By including the maintenance of models in one project, there is a better overview of the required maintenance of the models and the budget can be used flexibly based on the set priorities. In addition, it contributes to substantive coordination between different models.
This concerns several models: WOG-WOD, NEMA, INITIATOR and NMI4. WOG-WOD is used to determine the nitrogen application standards, NEMA and INITIATOR are used to calculate the spatial distribution of national ammonia emissions. For the pas 20 years, estimates of emissions and risks for aquatic life and leaching to groundwater due to the use of plant protection products in Dutch Agriculture and horticulture have been based on calculations with the National Environmental Indicator (NMI).
These models will be used for the evaluation of future manure policy and therefore it is important that these models are up-to-date.
