The Brookings County Conservation District is a political subdivision
of the State of South Dakota whose goals are to coordinate and promote
the proper stewardship of all our natural resources. In doing so, the
District encourages and assists all farmer and landowners of Brookings
County to conserve their natural resources. Emphasis is placed on education,
planning and the application of conservation practices. To be effective,
the District must combine the efforts of local, county, state and federal
governmental entities as well as private organizations and individuals.
One of the many responsibilities that are handled by the District is
encouraging land users to properly apply and maintain conservation practices
which are practical and economically feasible. The District helps tailor
their programs to each individual land user’s needs.
The District provides support to land users who seek technical assistance
to enroll in various government programs, helps the public with complying
with the Sediment and Erosion control ordinance and assists with securing
state and local funding for specialized projects.
