WERA-103 Community
WERA-103: Nutrient Management and Water Quality is a Western Education/Extension and Research Activity within the national land-grant university multistate research and Extension system. Similar groups operate throughout the United States, providing a formal structure for universities and their partners to address issues that cross state boundaries. WERA-103 brings together university researchers and Extension specialists, government agencies, agricultural laboratories, industry, consultants, and other professionals to address nutrient management and water quality across the diverse soils, climates, and cropping systems of the Western United States.
AREAS OF EMPHASIS INCLUDE:
- crop nutrient recommendations
- nutrient- and water-use efficiency
- soil, plant, water, and amendment testing and interpretation
- nutrient cycling and organic nutrient sources
- soil health; and agricultural practices that protect air and water quality
The group exchanges technical information, identifies regional research and Extension needs, develops science-based recommendations and educational resources, and supports collaborative research and outreach across states and institutions.
