A project formed to improve water quality in the Great Lakes Basin is meeting that objective while improving the bottom-line of farmers and ag retailers.
The Partnership for Ag Resource Management (PARM) started in 2010 with the objective of identifying and promoting market-based solutions that improve farm economics and natural resources.
Thomas Green, the director of PARM, says their efforts have led to reduced phosphorous levels in the Sandusky River Watershed by connecting farmers to retailers offering products and services like cover crops, precision ag, and variable rate technology.
