USDA Revises National Standard to Improve Nutrient
Efficiency and Water Quality
|
The U.S. Department of
Agriculture has revised its national
conservation practice standard on
nutrient management to help producers
better manage the application of
nutrients on agricultural land.
The nutrient management standard
provides a roadmap for NRCS's staff
and others to help producers apply
available nutrient sources in the right
amount, from the right source, in the
right place, at the right time for
maximum agricultural and environmental
benefits. |

Conservation Beyond Boundaries
Clean water, abundant wildlife, and productive agriculture
are interconnected. Conservation doesn't have man-made
boundaries. That's why NRCS is addressing natural resource
priorities on a landscape scale. Our conservation
solutions: benefit both landowners and the environment;
provide wildlife habitat; and improve agricultural production.
That's conservation beyond boundaries |
