Abstract
The report provides information on methods and practices that will control or reduce water pollution from nonpoint agricultural sources. Nonpoint agricultural pollutants are organic and inorganic materials entering surface and ground water from nonspecific or unidentified sources in sufficient quantity to constitute a pollution problem. They include sediment, plant nutrients, animal wastes, and pesticides from cropland, rangeland, pastures, and farm woodlots. Both economic and environmental considerations are important in controlling nonpoint sources of water pollution.
