Constructed Wetlands: Mitigation, Credit Where Credit is Due

Produced with contributions by John McMaine, former Griffith Endowed Assistant Professor & SDSU Extension Water Management Engineer.

This week on Streamlines we join John McMaine and Anthony Bly for their continued discussion of constructed wetlands and hear about the following:

  • The different reasons farmers would adopt this practice
  • The future of nutrient trading, mitigation credits, and other potential ways to make a profit from marginal land
  • Some relevant projects that Jeff and John are currently working on
  • How we can help farmers learn about the various opportunities of constructed wetlands

We bring back Dr. Jeff Strock for this week’s episode, a professor at the University of Minnesota and located at the Southwest Research and Outreach Center near Lamberton, Minnesota.
