Abstract Livestock are a critical part of our food systems, yet their abundance globally has been cited as driver many environmental and human health concerns. Issues such soil, water, air pollution, greenhouse gas emissions, aquifer depletion, antimicrobial resistance genes, zoonotic disease outbreaks have all linked to livestock operations. While studies examined these issues at depth local scales, it difficult complete regional or national scales due the dearth data, hindering pollution...
Manureshed management guides the sustainable use of manure resources by matching areas crop demand (nutrient sinks) with generating livestock sources). A better understanding impacts manureshed on water quality within sensitive watersheds is needed. We quantified potential benefits manureshed-oriented through scenario-based analyses in Susquehanna River Basin (SRB) using Soil and Water Assessment Tool. Five scenarios were developed compared a baseline "business-as-usual" scenario. The...
As global phosphorus (P) stores rapidly decline, P fed algal blooms continue to threaten critical freshwater resource across the globe. In Midwestern United States (US) that make up Corn Belt, biorefineries could foster circularity by diverting away from concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFO) and toward renewable (rP) fertilizer production. To inclusion of recovery incentives in state nutrient reduction strategies, this study elucidates cascading benefits rP corn watersheds six Upper...
