We are continually looking for new ideas and projects to conserve natural resources, maintain agricultural productivity, and increase awareness of conservation issues on the Palouse. If our current services don’t meet your needs, let’s talk.
Precision Ag cost share
We can provide funds to help you upgrade your equipment for precision seeding and spraying. In addition to increasing farm productivity and efficiency, precision ag technology reduces the potential for over-application and runoff, thus improving water quality. We are currently seeking funding.
Conservation tillage
Funds are available to incentivize low disturbance tillage and offset some of the risk of using new practices in your operation. Conservation tillage can yield benefits including reduced erosion, improved soil health, and increased farm efficiency.
Habitat restoration & enchancement
We can help plan and offset the cost of planting grasses, shrubs, or trees along streams, farm roads, field borders, eyebrows, and more. Selected native plants especially suited for the site will provide cover and food for wildlife and improve water and air quality by reducing erosion and using excess nutrients.
Wildfire resiliency & Forest Health
We offer home ignition zone assessments, including evaluation of potential fuels and defensible space suggestions. Funding is available for cost-sharing fuels reduction. Funding is also available for forest health practices like mulching, thinning, and replanting after fire on working forest ground.
