Low-ammonia-emission animal housing systems

Ministerial Decree amending the Ministerial Decree on low-ammonia-emission animal housing systems adding a measure to reduce ammonia emissions

Flanders is making significant efforts to reduce ammonia emissions by the agricultural sector. Ammonia emission reduction measures play an important role in this. For this purpose, a list of ammonia emission reduction measures is included in the legislation, and the way in which ammonia emission reduction measures may be included in the legislation is also included in the legislation.
The present amending Decree adds the new measure of ‘cow toilets’ to the list, which ensures a reduction of ammonia emissions through the direct separation of urine from solid manure.
