Agency: USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service
Action: Comments Requested by December 23, 2024
Why it matters: USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) is seeking public comments on the Conservation Practices Standards (CPS) improvements meant to increase climate mitigation and adaptation benefits. NRCS conservation programs support financial and technical assistance for producers in support of things such as soil carbon improvement, and reduction of nitrogen losses. All CPS are reviewed at least once every 5 years. This request provides the public an opportunity to provide input at the beginning of the cycle.
