Funding Opportunities - Potentially Related to Great Lakes Priorities

Natural Resources Conservation Service Funding Opportunities

Natural Resource Programs of the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) offer landowners financial, technical, and educational assistance to implement conservation practices on privately owned land. Using this help, farmers and ranchers apply practices that reduce soil erosion, improve water quality, and enhance forest land, wetlands, grazing lands, and wildlife habitat. Incentives offered by USDA promote sustainable agricultural practices, which protect and conserve valuable farmland for future generations. USDA assistance also helps individuals and communities restore natural resources after floods, fires, or other natural disasters. Certain programs give the Great Lakes Basin a high priority when ranking requests for funding. This is noted in the "Great Lakes Connection" row. Contact information for all grant programs is as follows:
