USDA INVESTS IN ALABAMA PROJECT TO ADVANCE CONSERVATION AND CLIMATE-SMART
AGRICULTURE

Dan November 6, 2024 Alabama, Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP),
USDA-NRCS


Courtesy USDA/NRCS

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) recently announced a historic $1.5
billion for 92 partner-driven conservation projects through the Regional
Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP), a partner-driven approach to
conservation that funds solutions to natural resource challenges on agricultural
land. Partners will provide $968 million in contributions to amplify the impact
of the federal investment. Selected RCPP projects will help farmers, ranchers,
and forest landowners adopt and expand voluntary, locally led conservation
strategies to enhance natural resources while tackling the climate crisis. 

Today’s investment is made with funding available through the Farm Bill and the
Inflation Reduction Act. This has enabled the USDA Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS) to boost funding for RCPP. In total, the Inflation
Reduction Act provides $19.5 billion to support USDA’s oversubscribed
conservation programs, including $4.95 billion for RCPP.

The projects support priorities in conservation and climate and can save farmers
money and increase productivity. In Alabama, $17,525,000 will be going to the
Alabama Soil & Water Conservation Committee for a project titled, “Restoring
Alabama’s Black Belt Prairie Landscapes”. The primary goal of this project is to
restore and enhance the Black Belt Prairie ecosystem to support biodiversity,
improve soil carbon sequestration and provide economic and social benefits. The
objectives include terrestrial habitat and biodiversity enhancement, soil carbon
sequestration and social and economic benefits. NRCS climate-smart and other
practices will be used to remove woody encroachment, treat invasive species, and
reintroduce fire, which will re-germinate the native seedbank.

By leveraging collective resources and collaborating on common goals, RCPP
demonstrates the power of public-private partnerships in delivering results for
agriculture and conservation.



Projects are being awarded under both RCPP Classic and RCPP Alternative Funding
Arrangements (AFA). RCPP Classic projects are implemented using NRCS contracts
and easements with producers, landowners and communities in collaboration with
project partners. Through RCPP AFA, the lead partner works directly with
agricultural producers to support the development of innovative conservation
approaches that would not otherwise be available under RCPP Classic.
