Within OVERSEER, fertilisers are defined as material applied to supply nutrients for plant growth. Fertilisers include synthetic and natural inorganic fertilisers (sometimes referred to as ‘conventional' fertilisers), lime and organic material. However, this definition of fertiliser within OVERSEER excludes farm produced effluent, which is modelled separately.
This chapter describes characteristics of fertilisers used in OVERSEER.
