Division of Soil Conservation

Stewardship of the environment is key to the continued viability of agriculture for generations to come.  In addition, Indiana agriculture provides a number of important environmental benefits for Hoosiers including clean air, water and wildlife habitat.

The Division of Soil Conservation belongs to the Indiana Conservation Partnership. Working together, the Partnership provides technical, educational, and financial assistance to citizens to solve erosion and sediment-related problems occurring on the land or impacting public waters.
