Soil health grows with collaboration
"Cover crops are a way to bring some environmental benefits to working lands." — Heidi Rauenhorst, Hawk Creek Watershed Project.
On weeds, seeds and vegetation policy
Research, field experience and environmental challenges shape policies about what’s appropriate for conservation plantings. Minnesota has become a leader in native seed production.
Planning, implementation tool upgraded
By prioritizing water resources based on scientific data, this water-quality tool helps determine where to place best management practices and quantify how much good they'll do.
Culvert inventory aids road safety, trout
"For how small a culvert is, it can have these hugely out-sized impacts on the landscape." — Kari Hedin, Fond du Lac Reservation.
