NRCS Strategic Plan
The 2011-2015 Strategic Plan sets the direction and priorities for NRCS in all activities in helping people help the land. This plan will be used to develop tactics to deliver on our core mission. This plan is focused on three (3) overarching priorities:
-
1) Get more Conservation on the Ground – This is what the agency is here to do. NRCS is committed to developing and implementing, and evaluating strategic conservation solutions; delivering the highest quality technical expertise; and proactively addressing emerging natural resource issues.
2) Increase organizational effectiveness and efficiency– NRCS will change as needed to ensure that we have the right people with the right skills in the right places to get conservation on the ground and produce the results that our customers and stakeholders expect.
3) Create a climate where private lands conservation will thrive – NRCS believes that voluntary, incentive-based conservation is the best way to achieve positive environmental results, and that requires strong partnerships and coalitions to promote an ethic of conservation stewardship among America’s private landowners.
The agency’s success on meeting these priorities will be measured by specific outcomes within our core mission and supporting activities.
