Against the background of ongoing eutrophication of the Baltic Sea, this study examined drivers and constraints for implementation by farmers of measures to minimise nutrient losses to waters. The research was conducted in two Polish regions (Mazovia and Pomerania) and included 28 agricultural farms. Four remediation tools were tested and the results evaluated. The study clearly demonstrates the need for greater awareness among farmers of nutrient flows and management on their farms, especially in a changing world requiring them to be better prepared to show flexibility in their production.
