• Batch and Build Site Vetting and Surveying Workshop

    This is the second of a series of workshops to help equip ag retail professionals and others to address Iowa's nitrogen challenge by scaling edge-of-field (EOF) practices through batch-and-build delivery models. The workshop is being hosted by Heartland Coop, the Iowa Nutrient Research Education Council, and the Agricultural Drainage Management Coalition. One did not have to attend the first workshop to participate in the second.
  • When: Augutst 18, 2026; 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM

    Where: LICA Farm 1723 290th St., Melbourne, IA

    About the Workshops:

    Part 1 covered how nitrogen moves off fields, why in-field management alone isn’t enough to meet water quality goals, and how ag retailers can engage farmers, identify suitable sites, and use batch-and-build approaches to efficiently implement bioreactors, saturated buffers, and drainage water management practices at scale.

    Part 2 will cover how to identify suitable sites through desktop reviews, surveys, and design work.

    Part 3 will cover what to do if the site is not suitable for edge of field practices.
