Скачать или смотреть Vegetative Buffer Strips: Water Quality and Soil Erosion Video

A huge thank you to Tyron Williams and Williams Enterprises for allowing us to shoot on their farm. Vegetative buffer strips can be part of a sustainable farming system that considers conservation of natural resources, farm economic sustainability, and produce safety. This video provides an overview of types of buffers and their benefits to improving water quality and reducing soil erosion; and provides information on how growers can access USDA NRCS support for implementation.
