In addition to answering questions relating to nutrient farming, what other benefits does TWI anticipate in developing a site for a nutrient farming pilot project?
A nutrient farm would function as a high-quality wetland. As such, in addition to reducing nutrients and improving water quality, it would provide waterfowl and wildlife habitat, store floodwaters, reduce sediment loads, and sequester carbon. Indeed, the fact that a nutrient farm would provide multiple environmental benefits makes this strategy more appealing than traditional treatment methods (e.g., wastewater treatment plants) that provide no benefits other than nutrient reduction and rely on fossil fuels in the treatment process.
