Evan Brehm is a conservation agronomist with the Iowa Soybean Association in the Middle Cedar Watershed, classified as a high-priority watershed. Jim O’Connell, a farmer in Linn County specializing in corn and beans, has been working with Evan to implement practices that improve water quality. They installed a bioreactor, a saturated buffer and a wetland on Jim’s farm. These edge-of-field practices can reduce the amount of nitrates leaving a farm and entering the watershed. Join Evan and Jim as they discuss methods that can be integrated on any size operation to improve water quality.
