This series of thirty-two best management practice
(BMP) factsheets was developed
by members of SERA 17. The BMPs described in these factsheets can
broadly be divided into three groups: (1) BMPs that have an impact
on the type or source of phosphorus (Source BMPs),
(2) BMPs that affect the transport of phosphorus (Transport BMPs), and
(3) BMPs that have an impact on both the source and transport of phosphorus (Source
and Transport BMPs). The list of topics in this series will continue
to expand, as new research and technologies demonstrate further possible
reductions in phosphorus losses.
