Why I made this request :
There are number of rumors that farmers in the area of Abbotsford
are using more than enough fertilizers in past few years which has been a
become debatable issue in the public and media. I want to confirm if this is
really happening or this is just a misconception. With this detailed report people
can see the proof if the fertilizers were used more than enough or not.
This is a very interesting and original topic. I would've like to have seen a more personal reason for choosing this topic. Your format and everything looks great!
ReplyDeleteI really liked your topic, it was so different from the rest of the FOIs. However, explanation I would of liked to see an article linked at the bottom regarding the issue with the fertilizer in Abbotsford.
ReplyDeleteIt would be better if you add exact month instead of last year.The comparison table of fertilizers would probably have to be done by yourself?

ReplyDeleteThe ATI topic is very different and interesting. I think the information from the department could be very useful in real world.
ReplyDeleteI really liked your topic choice, it was different from the typical ideas. I would have loved to see what the exact amount of fertilizer that was considered too much was.
