Our Conservation District supervisors work directly with the USDA Natural Resource Conservation Service (formerly the Soil Conservation Service) to deliver technical assistance to the people of Dukes County. The Conservation District is a voice for the community, providing leadership on conservation issues and establishing priorities for conservation activities and programs.  
 
The Dukes Conservation District was established in the 1940’s to provide access to the technical and financial assistance available from NRCS to farmers, aquaculturists and conservation land managers in the seven Towns in the County.  The assistance provided is aimed at producing the highest conservation of resources possible within the appropriate land management program that is owned or under management of District Cooperators.  Over the years through the District, Cooperators have received farm management planning assistance, engineering design of manure storage facilities and erosion control as well as funding assistance to implement best practices such as nutrient management, fencing to allow intensive grazing and wildlife habitat improvement.
