Description

Numerous beneficial management practices (BMPs) have been developed and promoted to minimize the impacts of agriculture on the environment and increase the sustainability of the agricultural industry. However, the effectiveness of BMPs under Alberta conditions is not well known. This study evaluates the effectiveness of nutrient BMPs on water quality improvement in prime agricultural regions in Alberta, at field and watershed scales, in order to provide viable options for sustainable agriculture and water quality protection.
