Welcome to NRCS in Texas!
Kristy Oates, State Conservationist
Texas NRCS, led by our State Conservationist and our State Leadership Team, serves diverse agricultural needs through five zone offices, 228 field offices, and three Plant Materials Centers. We provide voluntary, cost-effective technical and program assistance to farmers, ranchers and forest stewards to conserve, protect and improve soil, water, air, plants and animals. In doing so, we enable agriculture producers to better manage their natural resources while meeting their operational goals and objectives.
