Natural Resources Conservation

The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is a federal agency under the U.S. Department of Agriculture that focuses on conserving natural resources and promoting healthy ecosystems across the nation's lands. They provide science-based soil information to help land managers effectively manage and conserve their soil, and offer voluntary programs and technical assistance to farmers, ranchers, and landowners to conserve the country's resources.

The NRCS also works closely with State Technical Committees in every state to advise on technical guidelines for implementing conservation provisions. They address various natural resource concerns such as soil, water, plants, animals, land, air, energy, climate, wildlife habitat, and invasive species. Additionally, they provide financial assistance, engineering services, and support for disaster recovery, underserved communities, nutrient management, organic agriculture, and urban farming.
