Agricultural Conservation

The USDA's NASS is launching the 2026 Conservation Effects Assessment Project to collect vital conservation data from farmers across the nation. This survey will assist in refining conservation policies and presents a significant opportunity for contractors in agricultural data collection and environmental support services.

The USDA’s NRCS has committed $65 million in FY 2026 for Conservation Innovation Grants, enhancing agricultural conservation initiatives. With applications opening until July 27, contractors have a prime opportunity to submit proposals aimed at improving natural resource stewardship.
