Demir is working on stricter rules for farmers: cultivation-free zones along water, maximum fertilization standard reduced by 15%

Minister of Environment Zuhal Demir (N-VA) wants to have a seventh manure action plan (MAP7) ready by the end of the year because the water quality in Flanders is substandard. An initial proposal, which the government will be negotiating in the coming weeks and which De Tijd was able to view, includes very strict rules for fertilization in agriculture.
