From the supplier: A CREAMS field scale microcomputer was used to analyze the effectivity of a selected number of best management practices (BMPs) and nutrient management programs (NMPs) for monitoring and controlling sediment and nutrient losses in three different soil configurations located in the Chesapeake Bay drainage area. Results of the study showed that BMPs and improved NMPs can effectively reduce total sediment and nutrient losses, since BMPs increase percolation and runoff, while improved NMPs reduce nitrate leaching and potassium losses.
