Description
Description | The project involves the increase in the number of large concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs) in Iowa, which has grown by 13% over six years. These farms generate over 100 million tons of manure annually, contributing to water pollution and health issues such as elevated nitrate levels and increased cancer rates. The largest CAFO farms holding 1,000 or more animal units increased from 3,936 to 4,444 farms between 2019 and 2025. There is a call for shifting regulation and oversight to the county level to improve inspections and enforcement. |
