Smart Nitrogen Application Program Demonstration Project

The project will create a program to encourage increase productivity and nutrient use efficiency through BMP implementation and to generate revenue from the monetization of carbon credits. The project, involving producer interaction and participation, will evaluate existing N2O protocols and will help create a streamlined Smart Nitrogen Application Program (SNAP) framework for delivering carbon credits to market place. At the end of the project a fully functioning and self-perpetuating program will have been created to help producers create and sell credits into both voluntary and compliance markets.
