USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service will invest $225 million this year through the Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP). RCPP is a partner-driven program that leverages collective resources to find solutions to address natural resource challenges on agricultural land.
This year’s funding announcements include opportunities for projects that address climate change, benefit historically underserved producers and support urban agriculture.
NRCS Chief Terry Cosby said of the program, “We’re harnessing the power of partnership to create lasting solutions to global challenges, like climate change, and support producers and communities who have been underserved in the past.”
