AAE 320 FALL 2014 Nitrogen and Agriculture Let’s Talk About It!

Articles/Videos 1. A Brief History of Our Deadly Addiction to Nitrogen Fertilizer (Mother Jones) 2. Ecosystems: Down on the Farm (Environmental Defense Fund Video) 3. How Drones Could Limit Fertilizer Flow into Lake Erie (Detroit Public TV Video) 4. Using the Supply Chain to Slash Fertilizer Pollution (Environmental Defense Fund)

Questions to Consider What grabbed your attention when reading the article/watching the video? What does the author want farmers to do? What kind of regulations should we have for agricultural nitrogen use?

Agricultural Use of Nitrogen & Phosphorous in WI As long as it does not cause damage, no laws regulate how much fertilizer a farmer can use (rate, timing)  If a farmer spreads manure on frozen ground and it kills fish, the farmer can be fined Several triggers exist that require a farmer to have a Nutrient Management Plan for the farm See the link to “What is a Farm Nutrient Management Plan?” on the class page

Nutrient Management Plan Triggers Participate in USDA-NRCS Programs Permitted Livestock Operations (NR243) Wisconsin’s Livestock Siting Ordinance (ATCP51)  County & Local Zoning County Programs  Priority Watersheds & Outstanding/Exceptional Resource Water Protection Areas (NR 151)  Land & Water Conservation Plans (NR 151)  Working Lands (Farmland Preservation) Tax Credit  If accept cost-share to create a plan (ATCP 50)

What is a Farm Nutrient Management Plan? A strategy for obtaining the maximum return from on- farm and commercial fertilizer resources in a manner that protects water quality  Measure current levels of soil fertility  Determine crop nutrient needs  Account for on-farm nutrient resources (manure, legumes, residual N)  Adjust commercial fertilizer application rates If a plan is required for an agricultural or environmental program, the plan must meet USDA- NRCS’s Nutrient Management Standard – 590
