Agricultural Phosphorus Nonpoint Source Pollution In The Minnesota River

Author

Listed:
  • Westra, John V.

Abstract

Phosphorus loads from agronomically diverse practices were simulated using representative farms from a heterogenous watershed of the Minnesota River. Results from integrated bioeconomic analyses were used to test hypotheses about nontargeted and targeted nonpoint source phosphorus pollution abatement programs, with respect to net farm income and phosphorus loading.
