This policy note outlines economic and "fairness" reasons why supporting the sale of the cost-share portion of agricultural nutrient and sediment reductions is not the most appropriate policy for the USDA and other government agencies to adopt. This policy note focuses narrowly on this question, and does not discuss other issues related to water quality trading such as trading rules, baseline nutrient and sediment loads, point source cost-share payments, treatment of multiple environmental benefits from a best management practices, etc.
