Showing 1311 - 1320 of 1760 projects
Helping Corn and Cotton Producers to Reduce Nitrogen Loss Using Crop Sensors
University of Missouri, via NFWF     |     MO     |     2008
Assist corn and cotton producers in trying sensoring technology for variable-rate nitrogen management on their farms. Project will closely match nitrogen fertilizer rate to crop need, reducing nitrogen application and loss to water.
Native Warm Season Grasses for North Mississippi Livestock Producers: Reducing Production Inputs with Alternative Forages
North Central MS Resource Conservation and Development Council, via NFWF     |     MS     |     2008
Introduce native warm season grasses to livestock producers in north Mississippi as alternative forages to be used for haying and grazing. Project will reduce input costs, improve water quality, livestock forage, and wildlife Habitat.
Developing and Implementing a New Approach to Outreach, Planning and Technical Assistance in Delivering Innovative Resource Conservation Practices to Strawberry Growers in North Carolina
Center for Agricultural Partnerships, via NFWF     |     NC     |     2008
Develop and implement a conservation training program for North Carolina strawberry growers. Project will create a resource assessment tool to facilitate resource conservation and perform a programmatic case study.
Effective Strategies for Biogas and Nutrient Management Resulting from Anaerobic Digestion in Covered Swine Lagoons
North Carolina State University, via NFWF     |     NC     |     2008
Demonstrate effective, economically-feasible uses for biogas and nutrients derived from swine waste. Project will test a variety of Energy production and nutrient capture technologies and educate agricultural stakeholders about their implementation.
Reducing Soil Erosion through Thermal Pest Control
Propane Education & Research Council, via NFWF     |     DC     |     2008
Demonstrate that weed flaming for agronomic crops can reduce or eliminate the need for tillage operations, thereby conserving moisture and limiting soil dispersal. Project will test propane flaming technology and disseminate educational materials.
Subsurface Drainage Water Management to Reduce Manure Contaminated Drain Discharge
Cornell University, via NFWF     |     NY     |     2008
Achieve a better understanding of how liquid dairy manure interacts with soil porosity. Project will investigate how this interaction influences transport of liquid manure constituents to subsurface drainage outflows.
Grand Lake St. Mary's Shoreline Stabilization Using Geotextile Tubes
Mercer County Soil and Water Conservation District, via NFWF     |     OH     |     2008
The Great Lakes Biochar Demonstration Project
Ohio Farmers Union Family Farm Cente, via NFWF     |     OH     |     2008
Demonstrate carbon sequestration and additional greenhouse gas emissions for nutrient trading systems and opportunities. Project will demonstrate and field test an innovative system to manage animal manure to address Great Lakes water quality impacts.
An Innovative Approach to Conservation and Integrated Pest Management in Oklahoma Cropping Systems
Oklahoma State University, via NFWF     |     OK     |     2008
Protecting Biodiversity through Early Detection and Rapid Response to Invasive Species
The Nature Conservancy, via NFWF     |     OR     |     2008
