Drainage Water Recycling Field Day
September 4, 2024 | 5:00-7:00pm
Mark Schleisman’s Farm
1532 365th St.
Lake City, IA 51449
Hosted by the Iowa Learning Farms in partnership with the Iowa Nutrient Research Center. Please RSVP in advance to ilf@iastate.edu or call 515-294-5429. The event is free and open to farmers and landowners and includes a complimentary meal.
During this field day, attendees will have a chance to get a closer look at new installations being used to collect in-field data on the performance of these systems. These sites are being studied as part of a research project led by the Iowa Nutrient Research Center and the Iowa Soybean Association analyzing drainage water recycling’s costs and benefits.
