The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Agricultural Research Service (ARS) recently outlined steps toward addressing Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) contamination in agricultural soils and waters. In collaboration with the University of Maine and the Center of Excellence for Environmental Monitoring and Mitigation, ARS hosted a three-day workshop with over 150 experts to develop a research roadmap for handling PFAS, a persistent environmental contaminant affecting agricultural operations.
