Wijziging van de Meststoffenwet in verband met de implementatie van het zesde actieprogramma Nitraatrichtlijn

This Dutch bill amends the Fertilisers Act (Meststoffenwet) to implement the sixth action programme under the EU Nitrates Directive. The Nitrates Directive aims to protect water quality by reducing nitrate pollution from agricultural sources, and each action programme sets rules on how and when fertilisers and manure may be applied. Based on metadata only, the bill's specific measures are not visible here. The changes are likely to affect farmers and other operators who use or handle fertilisers and manure, as well as authorities responsible for monitoring and enforcement. The full text would clarify the exact obligations, timelines and any transitional arrangements.
