There are now three SDSU Extension podcasts: “Streamlines,” a deep dive into water management and its effects on South Dakota agriculture; “CattleHQ,” for cow/calf producers; and “Home Starts Here,” a showcase of South Dakotans at work in their home communities.

Streamlines
Streamlines is a podcast that provides useable information for listeners to better understand and implement practices that improve water quality and quantity.

Phosphorus Trapped – Edge-of-field treatment to reduce phosphorus loss (Part 3 of 4)
In this episode of Streamlines, Dr. John McMaine and Anthony Bly welcome guests Dr. Lindsey Pease and Dr. Chad Penn to continue their discussion on phosphorus.

Phosphorus and Tile Drainage (Part 2 of 4)
In this week’s episode of Streamlines, Dr. John McMaine and Anthony Bly continue their discussion on phosphorous.

Phosphorus and Algal Blooms (Part 1 of 4)
This week we are joined by Dr. Lindsey Pease, an assistant professor and extension specialist in nutrient and water management at the Northwest research and outreach center for the University of Minnesota, and Dr. Chad Penn, a soil scientist for the USDA Agricultural Research Service and an adjunct professor at Purdue University.

Managing Water with Soil Health
If we are seeing so many benefits to drainage and soil health systems, why isn’t everybody doing it? Can we see a win-win-win situation when looking at habitat, agronomy, and water quality in a system?

Soil Health & Drainage - Complementary tools from conflicting views
What is the relationship between soil health and drainage? How have different agricultural practices adjusted the landscape over time?

Constructed Wetlands: Mitigation, Credit Where Credit is Due
This week on Streamlines we join John McMaine and Anthony Bly for their continued discussion of constructed wetlands.

Constructed Wetlands: Engineering Nature’s Filter
How do constructed wetlands emulate the natural process of a wetland? In what ways do the different designs of a constructed wetland have to meet the needs of the area?

Subirrigation
Why is it important to know what the system needs before installing subirrigation?
