Description
The project also aims to quantify PFAS precursor accumulation within on-farm resources to assess farm management methods to mitigate PFAS contamination.activities:the project will (1) examine the relationships between PFAS distribution and soil properties, (2) measure and rank PFAS accumulation in different field crops, vegetables, and livestock forages, (3) elucidate environmental fate, transport, and plant uptake of PFAS at the nexus of soil, water, and crops on the PFAS-impacted farm, (4) measure PFAS accumulation in livestock, and (5) develop protocols to screen and map PFAS accumulation in agricultural settings.subrecipient:no subawards are included in this assistance agreement.outcomes:deliverables include annual and final reports. The results of this project will produce new scientific data and improve the basic knowledge on PFAS and precursor fate, plant uptake, bioaccumulation in livestock, cycling process in typical midwest crop-livestock farms. The expected outcome is to improve the knowledge of the PFAS life cycle in a farm setting. Direct beneficiaries include farmers, agricultural advisors, human health and the environment.
