2011 Annual Report - Conservation Technical Assistance
The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service’s
(NRCS) Conservation Technical Assistance (CTA) Program provides technical
assistance supported by science-based technology and tools to help people
conserve, maintain, and improve natural resources on their land.
The CTA program provides the technical capability,
including conservation planning, design, and implementation assistance, that
helps people plan and apply conservation on the land.
This assistance is provided to individuals, groups, and communities who make
natural resource management decisions on private, tribal, and other non-federal
lands. NRCS, through the CTA Program, provides conservation technical assistance
to address state and national natural resource conservation issues.
