Welcome to the Pathway to Water Quality

treesWhat Can I Do on the Farm and
in Woodlands?

Conservation Planning-Put Planning First The Natural Resources Conservation Service and your local Soil and Water Conservation District can help you put together a conservation plan tailored for your farm. Your plan is the starting point for managing the natural resources on your farm while maintaining productive capacity and meeting individual goals and objectives.

Indiana USDA NRCS Grazing Lands Conservation Initiative Program The Grazing Lands Conservation Initiative (GLCI) is a nationwide collaborative process of individuals and organizations working together to maintain and improve the management, productivity, and health of the Nation's privately owned grazing land. GLCI was developed to provide for a coordinated effort to identify priority issues, find solutions, and effect change on private grazing land.
