Recital 8

(8) In addition to the impact on water quality, nitrogen emissions from manure and livestock affect air quality. The use of RENURE fertilisers should go hand in hand with continuous efforts to mitigate the overall environmental impacts. It is therefore necessary to have appropriate safeguards and to set an upper limit for the use of RENURE fertilisers. That limit should reflect the characteristics of RENURE fertilisers from livestock manure, their use and substitution capacity, as well as the experience with the application of Annex III, point 2.
