Nutrients in the EU• Many EU legislations affecting nutrient cycling• Differencies in the national implementations• Additional national legislations
• Differencies between EU countries- In the share of different nutrient flows- In the share of nutrient use- In the intensity and structure of animal production
• Regional differencies within countries
Þ All this leading to different kinds of solutions and organic fertilizers markets

Netherlands• Intensive animal production =>
nutrient surplus• Obligation for farmers to process part
of the manure surplus• Processing means export, incineration,
processing to granulates…• Costs for processing 7 – 20 €/m3
manure (transport not included)• Derogation of Nitrates directive• Sewage sludge incinerated • Third of poultry manure incinerated
• Intensive animal production in Flanders => nutrient surplus• Obligation for farmers to process
part of the manure surplus• Processing means export,
biological treatment, composting…but not anaerobic treatment• Costs for processing up to 15 €/m3
(transport not included)• Derogation of Nitrates directive• No manure incinerated

Germany • Anaerobic digestion• Nutrient balance regulation• Compulsory phosphorus
recovery from sewage sludge and ashes 2025• By the end of 2016 no sewage
sludge use on agricultural land if synthetic polymers used in the process
• Slurry separation• Derogation decision supports pig
manure separation

Denmark• Pig production• Strict nitrogen fertilizing limits • Slurry acidification technologies• Animal housing clean tech
export
• Negative phosphorus balance • Advisory program Greppa
Näringen• Biogas use in transport

• Differencies in nutrient use and balances between different parts of Finland• Very high number of farms are committed to the agri-environmental program, which sets limit for use of both nitrogen and phosphorus• On the way to become the pilot country of nutrient recycling
