Returns or checks the Maximum Allowed Doses (Massimali Ammessi dal DPI, MAS) of nitrogen for a crop, as defined in the Disciplinari di Produzione Integrata (DPI) Emilia-Romagna (Allegato 9, Reg. reg. 2/2024). In ZVN the values are binding; they can be exceeded if production over 3 years exceeds the reference yield.

Usage

get_MAS(crop = NULL, mas_table = NULL, edition = c("2026", "2025"))

Arguments

crop

Character. Crop name (as in DPI nomenclature). Use get_MAS(NULL) or get_MAS() to list all crops.

mas_table

Data frame with columns crop, mas_N, reference_yield, type. If NULL, uses the built-in table for the chosen edition.

edition

Character. "2026" (default) or "2025". 2025 = Guida DPI 2025 (ZVN table); 2026 = FertDPI / Allegato 9 style.

Value

For get_MAS(crop): a one-row data frame with columns crop, mas_N, reference_yield (and if present mas_P2O5, yield_ref_min, yield_ref_max), type, or all rows if crop is NULL. For check_MAS: a list with ok (logical), mas_N, N_planned, message.
