 Techniques for application to growing crops                         
•
•In the three counties in southern Sweden, from 1998, slurry must be spread to growing crops with techniques that efficiently reduce losses of ammonia:
·Bandspreading techniques or other similar techniques, where slurry is placed directly on the ground beneath the crop cover,
·Injectors or other similar techniques, where slurry is placed directly in the ground,
·Techniques, where one part slurry is diluted with at least one half part water before application (broadcasting),
·Techniques, that are followed by irrigation with at least 10 mm water within 4 hours (broadcasting).
