2025 marks 10 years since the establishment of the Illinois Nutrient Loss Reduction Strategy (NLRS), a  collaborative, science-based effort to reduce nutrients in waterways. The goal is to reduce  phosphorus and nitrogen loads by 45% with interim targets set at a 15% reduction in nitrogen and a 25% reduction in total phosphorus by 2025.

Is the strategy still the right approach? What have we learned? Andrew Margenot from the University of Illinois joins Illinois Farm Bureau Vice President Evan Hultine for this important update.
