Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS)
Delaware
Welcome to the NRCS in Delaware. Sometimes defining what a federal agency does for the public can be
confusing, and rarely does one word sum it all up. So, when someone asks
us, “What can the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) do for me”, we
want to provide a clear and concise message so that you know exactly what
services we offer you. What can the NRCS do for you? We help you help the
land, which is our mission, “Helping People Help the Land”.
How do we do that exactly? We help you help the land by providing you, our
customers and partners, technical and financial assistance, which we offer
through five business lines. The first business line is “conservation
planning and technical consultation”. We provide technical consultation and
planning assistance to help you make beneficial decisions about natural resource
management. Our second business line is “conservation implementation”. We
help you install conservation practices and systems that meet established
technical standards and specifications. The third business line is
“natural resource inventory and assessment”. By collecting, analyzing and
providing you with natural resource data, we help you to establish the best
conservation plans and resource-use decisions for all landscapes. Fourth is,
“natural resource technology transfer”. We develop and distribute a wide array
of technology pertaining to resource assessment, conservation planning, and
conservation system installation and evaluation. This also includes training,
and certification in standards and procedures. The last of the five business
lines is “financial assistance”. The NRCS provides financial assistance to
encourage the adoption of beneficial land-treatment practices that conserve and
protect our nation’s valuable natural resources.
Financial assistance is awarded to those who voluntarily enter into contracts,
easements and agreements to conserve natural resources. Financial assistance is
provided through cost-share/ incentives, easements, grants and stewardship
payments. So, what can the NRCS do for you? We help you help the land.
It’s that simple. By providing technical and financial assistance through our
five business lines, we will help you help the land.
