Farm Water Quality Planning Short Course
 
UCCE & NRCS, in cooperation with the MBNMS and local
RCDs, Water Agencies/Districts, researchers, and Coalition coordinators, are offering ongoing Farm Water Quality Planning (FWQP) short courses for growers along the Central Coast. During the Course, producers learn about water quality regulations, techniques for site-assessment of pollution problems, methods for recognizing practices that are already in place that protect water quality, management practices that may be selected based on local conditions and crop types, and practice evaluation methods.

The course is held throughout the Central Coast and involves classroom and field instruction that leads to completion of an individualized Farm Water Quality Plan.
