Conteúdo: | The impact of animal production on the environment is of ever-increasing concern. In many states, producers whose operations cause polluted ground or surface waters are being fined. Three interactive PC-compatible computer programs have been designed to assist animal producers with assessing the risk that their animal operation poses to ground and surface waters. The programs are entitled: 1) Livestock Yards Management, 2) Livestock Waste Storage, and 3) Milking Center Wastewater Treatment. Each of the programs consists of a tutorial and a risk assessment. The tutorals use hypertext and VGA graphics to present general information on the handing and storage of animal wastes, while the risk assessments use expert system rules and user feedback to estimate the operation's risk rating. The risk assessments are built upon the Farmstead Assessment System (Farm-A-Syst), which is a series of paper-based risk assessment worksheets developed by the University of Wisconsin-Cooperative Extension and adopted as a national program by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
