Body

At NRCS, our mission is to help people help the land. We do that through cooperative conservation and a watershed approach. Our primary customers are farmers and ranchers and other private entities involved in agriculture. But here in Utah, many of our farmers and ranchers are also operating on other, non-private lands. We can�t be successful in achieving our mission without effective partnerships which allow us to work across boundaries. NRCS is in a unique position to facilitate relationships regardless of boundaries and provide technical expertise in designing and implementing conservation actions. Today you will learn about how NRCS identifies and assess resource concerns, focuses our efforts, and leverages our finances to achieve healthy working lands regardless of boundaries. I�ll show you some examples of successful partnerships and some of the opportunities we have available to work collaboratively with partners to get conservation on the ground.
