CNMP Training - Wisconsin
This
Comprehensive Nutrient Management Planning Curriculum was developed
by University of Wisconsin-Extension, partner conservation agencies
and private sector consultants as a component of the CSREES Great Lakes
Regional Water Quality Leadership Team Conservation Education Program.
Comprehensive Nutrient Management Planning (CNMP) is more
than just a 590 nutrient management plan. By closely examining the
entire livestock production system a planner can identify current and
potential problems resulting in a reduced potential for pollution.
There are three options for CNMP training—Agronomic, Engineering,
and Feed Management. Register only for the option you are qualified for.
