Abstract

Nonpoint source agricultural pollution is a significant water quality problem. An understanding of the linkages between erosion and offsite damages is needed to effectively evaluate the benefits from erosion reduction. The linkages were modeled for several impact categories, and the offsite benefits from the 1983 soil conservation programs were estimated.
