Changes have been finalized by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency for two of its general permits for feedlots. One notable update is that all applicants will use a new online Nutrient Management Tool to develop their Manure Management Plan, and this will be submitted electronically. More regulations for transferring manure from one farm to another were added as well. Specific best management practices were also included for manure application during various time periods during the year. The changes will go into effect in June 2025 and February 2026.
