Abstract:
Livestock manure application, tillage, and rotational practices, are statistically verified as the primary sources of nitrate-nitrogen contamination in Ohio farm water wells. The elimination/reduction of these sources may be a more economically viable alternative than current end use treatments for increasing drinking water quality.
