Abstract
The Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency of the National Institute of Public Health and the Environment (MNP-RIVM) publishes an Environmental Balance Sheet each year in accordance with the Environmental Management Act. Calculations using the Manure and Ammonia Model of ammonia emissions and other gaseous nitrogen losses form the basis of the figures contained in the publication. The large differences observed between this calculation and comparable calculations by Statistics Netherlands form the motivation for an analysis of the differences. This insight, supplemented with insight into the comparison of calculated and measured mineral levels in the manure, gave rise to a discussion on which starting points and calculation method were the most suitable as a basis for the Environmental Balance Sheet. Ingevolge de Wet Milieubeheer brengt het Milieu- en Natuurplanbureau van het RIVM (MNP-RIVM) jaarlijks een Milieubalans uit. Berekeningen met het Mest- en Ammoniakmodel van ammoniakemissie en andere gasvormige stikstofverliezen liggen ten grondslag aan de cijfers in de publicatie. De geconstateerde grote verschillen tussen deze berekening en vergelijkbare berekeningen van het CBS vormen de aanleiding naar een analyse van de verschillen. Dit inzicht, aangevuld met inzicht in de vergelijking van berekende en gemeten mineralengehalten in de mest, was de basis voor een discussie over welke uitgangspunten en berekeningsmethode het meest geschikt zijn als basis voor de Milieubalans.
