This project develops systems and protocols to launch a large-scale implementation of the On-Field Ohio tool. It develops an automated curriculum for agricultural advisors to work with their farmer clientele to evaluate and document reductions in erosion and phosphorus runoff, along with economic costs associated with changes in practices. The objective of On-Field Ohio! is to evaluate and revise the Ohio P Risk Index as needed using field-scale, edge-of-field monitoring facilities. Efforts assist farmers to compare current management practices with alternative management practices for potential reductions in erosion and P runoff and collect information about best management practices.
