The Nature Conservancy is working with farmers, Iowa Rivers Revival, Iowa Soybean Association, and Wright County Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) on water quality improvements by restoring oxbows. These oxbows decrease nutrients and sediment discharge for Topeka shiner spawning habitat in the Boone River Watershed, IA. Boone River Watershed Partnership includes farmers, The Nature Conservancy, Wright County SWCD, Iowa Soybean Association, and Iowa DNR.
