FY 2021 Local Working Group meeting to be held Feb. 12

The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) in Texas’ Marion & Cass County and the Marion-Cass Soil and Water Conservation District cordially invite the public to attend their FY 2021 Local Working Group (LWG) meeting Feb. 12, 2020, from 1 p.m. to 2 p.m.

The purpose of this annual LWG meeting is to set local conservation priorities and bring conservation stakeholders together to discuss conservation topics and issues relevant to helping Marion & Cass County farmers and ranchers better conserve on-farm natural resources.

The agenda of the meeting is to update attendees on recent conservation efforts and to collect public input to help guide future conservation activities. Through regular identification of conservation opportunities, effective Farm Bill investment can continue to benefit Marion & Cass County. Farmers, ranchers, conservationists, and others interested in obtaining Federal technical and financial assistance to improve private land in Marion and Cass County are invited to participate.
