Agricultural Drainage Management Coalition

The Agricultural Drainage Management Coalition (ADMC) is a nation-wide group of agricultural, industry, and environmental interests that have come together to promote drainage water conservation practices. The ADMC includes over 60 key stakeholders, including individual farmers, industry manufacturers, and environmental groups like The Sand County Foundation. ADMC entered into a contract with Farm Services Agency to monitor 7 saturated buffers located in Illinois, Iowa, and Minnesota to provide a larger dataset to support the decision to invest in saturated buffers within the CLEAR initiative (Clean Lakes, Estuaries and Rivers).
