South Dakota NRCS Partnerships
The National Association of Conservation
Districts (NACD) is the national organization for 3,000 local conservation
districts across the country. Conservation districts are local units of
government responsible for the soil and water conservation work within their
boundaries. The district's role is to increase voluntary conservation
practices among farmers, ranchers and other land users.
The National Association of Resource
Conservation and Development Councils (NARC&DC) provides a collective
voice for more than 300 local Resources Conservation and Development Councils
nationwide. The NARC&DC serves as an advocate and assists local
councils to identify and tale action on issues and opportunities to improve the
quality of life and environment in their communities. Local RC&D
Councils are grass-roots community leaders working collectively on behalf of
conservation and sustainable development.
The National Association of State
Conservation Agencies (NASCA) is a coalition of state conservation agencies
across the country. Conservation districts are local units of government
responsible for the soil and water conservation work within their
boundaries. The districts' role is to increase voluntary conservation
practices among farmers, ranchers and other land users.
