dont have it all at hand at the moment.
what i do know is.
or what i think i do, at least it will get the ball rolling for you;)
must have a plan of fert usage for the year ahead (i think)
last years records is good enough for the year ahead

and/or

a record of last years fert usage, keep fert invoices on file for a year, burried in a box with every thing else is nt good enough, contact merchant and request a statement of all fert bought for year
records of meal usage as well

all above is widely open for correction:o

if you are below the 170 which you nearly definately are with just sheep you dont have to do anything for Nitrates unless they pic you out in a check to submit records of fertiliser and feed but they would request this
