Conservation Showcase
The Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002 (also called the 2002 Farm
Bill) represents the single most significant commitment of resources toward
conservation on private lands in the nation’s history.
Landowners, working with NRCS and other state and local agencies, are making
this “the next golden age of conservation.” By implementing conservation
practices that promote healthier soil, cleaner air and water, increased wildlife
habitat, more economically stable rural communities, and increased scenic
beauty, landowners are harvesting environmental benefits for all Americans.
