Evaluation of beneficial management practices (BMPs) : South Tobacco Creek watershed.: A15-10313/2014E-PDF

The South Tobacco Creek (STC) Watershed project is a study of the environmental and economic performance of several agricultural beneficial management practices (BMPs) at a small watershed scale. Water quality degradation caused by excessive sediment and nutrient runoff can impact agricultural watersheds. Evaluating BMPs at the watershed scale enables researchers to combine the effects of soils, topography, local climate and land use, giving a clearer picture of BMP performance. This study is conducted on working farms where operational realities are taken into consideration in designing and conducting BMP experiments.
