Getting Started

Getting started with buying nutrient neutrality credits from SEC

STEP 1: Calculate your Credits

The Natural England Nutrient Budget Calculator has been designed to help Ashford and Canterbury developers work out the nutrient loads their new housing schemes will create.

The calculator is specific to Stodmarsh and Natural England was consulted on its background assumptions. You can find out more about how to use the calculator below. 

  • The updated calculator has been published on the Natural England website at: Stodmarsh SAC, Ramsar: nutrient neutrality calculator

This confirms the nutrient neutrality credits you need to purchase to ensure there is no detrimental impact on phosphorus and nitrogen levels in River Stour Catchment.
