Farmers in six Midwestern states who want to save on their next nitrogen bill can now sign up for a Practical Farmers of Iowa program designed to lower the risk of cutting the amount of nitrogen they apply.
Underground trenches filled with woodchips, called bioreactors, are gaining traction as viable edge-of-field tools to remove nitrogen (N) from the water that drains from agricultural fields.
