Illinois Nutrient Loss Reduction Strategy

h2013_Illinois_cornThe Illinois Farm Bureau reminds farmers they have until midnight this Saturday, January 24th, to comment on the Illinois Nutrient Loss Reduction Strategy. The IFB says it supports the plan because it uses education, outreach and voluntary, incentive-based best management practices for addressing nutrient losses from Illinois farm fields.

The goal of the plan is to reduce nutrient losses to improve Illinois water quality and the quality of water leaving the state and entering the Gulf of Mexico.

IFB is a founding member of the Illinois Council on Best Management Practices (C-BMP), a coalition of agribusinesses and agricultural organizations.
