Using the OVERSEER nutrient budget model to estimate on-farm greenhouse gas emissions

Abstract: The OVERSEER nutrient budget model is a farm-scale nutrient reporting and greenhouse gas (GHG) emission accounting tool used extensively throughout New Zealand (NZ) by farmers, farm consultants and fertiliser representatives. The model is increasingly being used as a tool for implementing regional council resource management requirements to limit nitrogen (N) and phosphorus losses to waterways. NZ’s main dairy company, Fonterra, also requires dairy farmers to have a nutrient budget as part of the national Clea… Show more

“…It is also important to Figure 5 Example of the annual distribution of urinary N return to a block of land stocked at 3.2 cows ha À1 under New Zealand conditions, based on calculations using the OVERSEER model (Wheeler et al, 2008). take account of characteristics of the urine patch that differ, say, from a fertilizer application; movement of N to depth during deposition and lateral access to nutrients by pasture outside the wetted area.…”

“…In farm systems, any effluent N applications should be adjusted to take into account the N loading of the applied effluent and to match pasture requirements (Luo et al 2010). In this regard, use of a nutrient budget model, such as Overseer ® (Wheeler et al 2008), is a useful tool for assessing the sustainability of N flows within farm systems and identifying opportunities for reducing NH 3 and N 2 O emissions.…”
