Nutrient Management Recordkeeping
Summary: For two growing seasons during 1996 through 1997 three dairy operators in Whatcom County, Washington participated with WSU Cooperative Extension in a project to identify on-farm nutrient flows of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium. One result of this cooperative project was the development of a record keeping system to assist farmers with nutrief this project, and in cooperation with the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), a series of nutrient record keeping forms were developed that meet Environmental Quality Incentive Program (EQIP) record keeping requirements.
The nutrient record keeping forms are available as downloadable hand written record forms (PDF format) and as a compiled spreadsheet computer program. Minimum requirement for the computer program is an IBM compatible computer running Windows 3.1 or higher.
