Abstract

Runoff control from beef, dairy, swine, sheep, and turkey feedlots are discussed and the legal implications of feedlot-runoff control, quantity and quality of runoff, runoff-control, quantity and quality of runoff, runoff-control facilities and their applications, and disposal of the controlled runoff are considered. Problems are less likely to occur on the disposal site if the nitrogen uptake of the crop is sufficient to prevent buildup of nitrogen in the soil profile. Salinity problems can develop in areas of low rainfall
