Phosphorus is an essential nutrient for plant growth and is routinely used as part of fertilization applications on home lawns. However, in some phosphorus-rich soils, its use can be decreased or even eliminated to reduce the possibility of surface water contamination due to runoff.

The Healthy Lawns/Healthy Environment Initiative focused on a statewide grassroots education movement that reached thousands of residents with practical and actionable lawn care stewardship information. The initiative also was credited with increased awareness of the role of phosphorus in fertilizer products.
