 NATURAL
RESOURCES CONSERVATION SERVICE (NRCS)
The
Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) works hand-in-hand
with America 's private landowners to conserve soil, water and
all natural resources. Urban and rural communities seek assistance
from NRCS to identify environmental problems and to devise solutions
for conserving and protecting water, curbing erosion and meeting
resource challenges. Farmers and ranchers care for most of the
Nation's privately owned land. They work voluntarily with NRCS
to develop conservation plans that protect our natural resources-and
provide healthy food, healthy agriculture and healthy land. NCRS
delivers technical assistance based on sound science that is suited
to a customer's specific needs. Cost share and financial incentives
are available in some cases through various programs. NRCS relies
on local partners to set conservation goals and work with people
on the land.
