Completion of "Best Environmental Management Practices" series of Best Management Practices pamphlets with MSU. A series of 12 tri-fold shirt pocket publications were jointly developed by Michigan and Indiana for use by confined livestock and poultry producers. Approximately 3000 of the publication sets have been distributed to producers in each state.

Completion of major revision of MWPS 2, in cooperation with U of IL (Ted Funk) and U of WI (Brian Holmes). The new version is 160 pages in length.

Jones, D. D., H. Zhang, J. Lorimor, B. Von Bermuth, R. Sheffield, S. Muktar, D. Schmidt, D. Rashash, D. Hansen. 2003. Model Certification Training Program for Operators of Confined Feeding Operations. Over 250 pages text, including nearly 200 study guide questions and over 500 PPT slides.

31 page white paper on "innovative methods for disposal of animal mortalities" for Joint KSU/Texas A&M/Purdue project.

Horse Handbook revision. To satisfy the growing audience of horse owners in the state, and especially the Chicago and suburban counties, University of Illinois Extension is increasing programming for horse facilities and horse manure management. We estimate a potential sales market for several hundred copies per year of the revised MWPS-15 Horse Handbook, once it is released.

House Planning Handbook revision. University of Illinois Extension continues to build on its residential housing program, and would benefit from having the revised MWPS-16 House Planning Handbook for sale. We have several field staff holding workshops for first-time homebuyers, realtors, and contractors, all representing a very large market for the new release.
