Research may increase buffer strip sites
According to recent research, farmers may be able to use buffer strips in more places than previously recommended to protect water quality.
Researchers at Iowa State University have stated that the design criteria for saturated riverbank buffer zones limit the practical locations used to redirect water from fields and reduce nutrient loss.
Saturated riverbank buffers can reduce nitrate load by more than 90% by artificially raising the water table in drains through water pipes that permeate plant buffers.
