FREE technical assistance? Surely you can’t be serious...

In case you didn’t know, we provide FREE technical assistance whether or not you have a contract with us. The goal of conservation technical assistance is to give farmers and ranchers the personalized advice and information they need to make informed decisions. And just like participation in EQIP and CSP, conservation technical assistance is completely voluntary. If you come into the office and leave with a conservation plan, no one is going to enforce what was provided in that plan. We just want to help you make your land as profitable and resilient as possible!
