The Conservation Plan – A Solid Foundation for NRCS Work
A key part of NRCS’s 90-year history was the establishment of the conservation planning process by Hugh Hammond Bennett. Many of Bennett’s ideas and principles about the critical role of conservation planning have withstood the test of time and still greatly inform our work at NRCS today. These ideas and principles have served as a solid foundation for addressing conservation challenges now and will continue to do so into the future.
