CAFRE SNHS Team

The objective of the Soil Nutrient Health Scheme (SNHS) is to test all, or the vast majority, of the 650,000 fields used for farming in Northern Ireland, in order to help farmers manage their nutrient applications.

Training is now available for farmers who have received their Soil Nutrient Health Scheme soil analysis results. Taking part in the SNHS Nutrient Management Plan training will enable you to fully utilise the information provided in your SNHS soil analysis report, maximise the nutrient potential of your soils and allow you take a planned approach to nutrient applications to benefit your business and protect the environment.

Participation in the SNHS is a condition for the receipt of the new Farm Sustainability and Farming with Nature Payments, this requires both registering for SNHS and completing the training being offered byCAFRE. Failure to complete both elements may affect your future payments.
