Technical Assistance
Conservation districts strive to provide quality technical assistance tailored to individual producers needs for their farm operation. Conservation districts partner with NRCS for their expertise and science-based approach to conserving natural resources. Conservation districts rely on NRCS standards and specifications for most best management practices implemented through state and county cost share programs. Technical assistance is provided at no charge and is provided to help producers make informed decisions about their land.
Technical assistance is available on a wide range of topics including:
- soil
- water
- pasture management
- wildlife habitat
- pollinators
- native grasses and wildflowers
- timber stand improvements
- soil testing
Contact your local conservation district to discuss any resource concerns you have on your land.
Technical assistance for planning, design, construction inspections for all cost-share projects is provided through our federal partners at NRCS. Landowners are not required to contract with private engineers for these services.
