For North Carolina's state Agriculture Cost Share Program, district staff are required to use specific approved tools to calculate water quality outcomes associated with practice implementation (soil saved, N and P reduced, etc.). We are exploring potential tool switches or upgrades to our approved program tools for water quality outcome reporting to enhance tool functionality, improve tool access and usability, and overall streamline the process of water quality outcome calculation reporting for district staff.

We would like to learn more about the tools other states are using for best management practice water quality outcome reporting for state agriculture cost share programs. Can you share publicly available links to the tools you use? Can you share published information (reports, fact sheets, etc.) about the tool(s) you use? Any information on this topic welcomed. Thanks!
