The USDA recently unveiled new action-based frameworks to increase conservation work to address threats facing America’s working rangelands. These frameworks are designed to benefit both agriculture and wildlife in sagebrush and grassland landscapes of the western United States.
NRCS and private landowners have partnered to protect more than 5 million acres of wetlands, grasslands and prime farmlands — an area the size of New Jersey. In Colorado, NRCS enrolled over 130,000 acres, helping achieve this important conservation milestone.
The NRCS is seeking proposals to fund new, unique projects under the Regional Conservation Partnership Program’s (RCPP) Alternative Funding Arrangements (AFA) that take innovative and non-traditional approaches to conservation solutions.
Farmers and ranchers can now do business with NRCS through farmers.gov by desktop computer, tablet, or phone.
Are you interested in keeping your working land productive for years to come? Use the NRCS's new Conservation Concerns Tool to learn about resource concerns that might impact your agricultural operation.This tool is available now on the farmers.gov website.
