Conservation Planning:
NCGA has partnered with the USDA National Resource Conservation Program (NRCS) and the Humboldt County Resource Conservation District (HCRCD) to provide local farmers and landowners with Conservation Planning resources to conserve and restore farmland in Humboldt County.
WHAT IS CONSERVATION PLANNING?
A conservation plan identifies a landowner/manager's conservation objectives and assesses and analyzes the natural resources issues on that customer’s land related to soil, water, animals, plants, air, energy, and human interaction.

HOW CAN THE NRCS HELP?
NRCS can provide farmers and ranchers with free technical assistance (consulting and advising) as well as financial assistance through various conservation programs such as the Environmental Quality Incentive Program (EQIP).
