In our neighborhood, lots of 2300 head hog barns going up. Sat thru presentation by high up DNRrepresentative 2 years ago on implementation of Iowa's nutrient management strategy, gave me the willies. I wouldn't put one up at all. His take on it was that it won't meet its goals (45percent reduction in n and p in 4years. )Asked question then what? EPA mandated soil testing ,any soil testing over medium will not be allowed any manure or fertilizer application until soil tests in low range . Inventory of livestock and manure produced. Quota allowing you to buy extra nutrients if your soil tests allows it. My opinion, large and medium-sized livestock farms with high to medium fertility(almost all of them) will be begging for a place to dispose of their [ waste]. My small cattle operation (70 cows ,feed out calves) will be impacted . Sure don't want any more manure factories on my farm. My 2 cents worth, thanks
