This document summarizes the effects of conservation practices on eutrophication in Beasley Lake. Integrated best management practices including reduced tillage, vegetated buffers, and sediment ponds reduced nutrient runoff into the lake from surrounding crop fields. This led to reductions in lake nutrient concentrations, algal blooms, and instances of low dissolved oxygen over time. However, internal nutrient loading from lake sediments may still contribute to eutrophication, so additional practices could further improve conditions.
