Minnesota River Basin
A History of Change
•Critical Economic Driver in Our Economy
•History of Drainage for Ag Productivity
•Cumulative Effect of These Changes Has Altered Hydrologic Balance
•Increased Nutrient and Sediment
•What Can We DO to Improve Water Quality While Minimizing Impact on Ag Production
