Abstract
This "tale of three watersheds," illustrates how conservation practices must be tailored to individual landowner objectives and local landscape conditions in order to optimize their effectiveness. Based on research conducted as part of USDA's Conservation Effects Assessment Project and its Watershed Assessment Studies paper arises from a project that evaluated the effects of agricultural conservation practices on water quality. Project focus involved improving the understanding how the suite of conservation practices, the timing of these activities, and the spatial distribution of these practices throughout a watershed influence their effectiveness.
