Pennsylvania Farm*A*Syst Publications |
||||||
| A series of worksheets plus guidance
materials designed for statewide use in Pennsylvania was developed in 1997 as
part of a cooperative effort among
Penn State Cooperative
Extension, Pennsylvania
Association of Conservation Districts,
Pennsylvania Department of
Agriculture, Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection, and
USDA Natural Resources
Conservation Service. The first six worksheets covered water wells,
pesticide and fertilizer storage and handling, household wastewater, barnyard
conditions, milkhouse waste, and streams and drainageways. A seventh worksheet
covering petroleum storage and handling was added in 1999. Since then, the
Farm*A*Syst packet was supplemented with worksheets covering silage storage,
animal waste storage, animal waste land application, and soil conservation.
Worksheets on such topics as pastureland management, animal concentration
areas, winter feeding areas, and poultry production are currently being
developed. The documents found on this page are in the PDF file format. |
