The episode also discusses how microbial activity affects nitrogen cycling and nutrient movement within the soil system.Explore efforts to reduce nutrients in Illinois waterways with host Todd Gleason and producers Rachel Curry, Nicole Haverback, and Luke Zwilling.Read the blog at extension.illinois.edu/nlr/blog   Subscribe for updates Explore more about nutrient loss in Illinois at go.illinois.edu/nutrientloss","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/Kl8LwwNP7HwaPP09XEQvL-zHkPsBwxtPdVE3r5aepCE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS80NDEw/MzVkNDVkN2U5YjQ4/NGNmOGUzYTgyMzJl/N2YzYy5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
