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 solutions to assist farmers, ranchers, and landowners in conserving the country's resources.
The NRCS also offers technical assistance to help producers identify conservation objectives and develop a roadmap for conservation on their operations. They apply engineering tools and principles to plan, design, and implement conservation practices, and provide financial assistance for selected conservation practices. Additionally, the NRCS addresses unique circumstances of historically underserved producers and offers support for disaster recovery and organic agriculture.
