Article: « SIA: towards the end of nitrogen fertilizers »
Answer: According to the article, the French Interministerial Agriculture Committee (SIA) is considering a reduction or even a ban on the use of nitrogen fertilizers in agriculture. This decision is based on the negative impacts of nitrogen fertilizers on the environment, such as greenhouse gas emissions, water pollution, and biodiversity loss. The SIA is encouraging farmers to adopt more sustainable practices, such as crop rotation and organic farming, to reduce their reliance on nitrogen fertilizers. However, the article notes that this transition may be challenging for farmers, as nitrogen fertilizers have been a key component of industrial agriculture for many years.
