Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP)
The Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP) offers the opportunity to receive financial assistance while conserving the natural resources on your operation! CSP encourages producers to improve conservation systems by installing additional activities and improving, maintaining, and managing existing conservation activities.
1) Are you ready to apply new conservation activities on your agricultural land or on your nonindustrial private forestland?
2) Are you willing to commit time to inventory and document your conservation activities and production system to determine eligibility and ranking?
3) Do you have records and will you continue maintaining records to document your conservation activities?
If you answered yes to these questions, CSP may be right for you!
Forestland Owners
can now take advantage of the conservation practices available through the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) by applying for the program at their local Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) or Soil and Water Conservation District office.
Funding is available for forest landowners within the Dugdemona Soil and Water Conservation District to implement forestry practices on their property. This includes cost sharing assistance for practices such as site preparation, tree planting, fire lane construction, prescribed burning, mid-story chemical release, and many other practices for landowners in Winn, Jackson and Caldwell parishes.
Every application will be ranked according to total environmental benefits derived from the implementation of conservation practices. NRCS evaluates each application using a state and locally developed evaluation process. Local priorities are developed each year at the annual locally led conservation work group meeting. High priorities are given to applications that encourage the use of cost-effective conservation practices, address state and national conservation priorities, and optimize environmental benefits.
EQIP helps producers through cost sharing and incentive payments for the implementation of conservation practices. All EQIP activities must be carried out according to a conservation plan of operations developed by the producer, NRCS, and in cooperation with the Dugdemona Soil and Water Conservation District.
Individuals qualifying as beginning farmers or limited-resource farmers may be eligible for increased payment rates. For more information on the Environmental Quality Incentives Program and how it may help you and your operation, in Jackson Parish visit the NRCS Ruston Field Office at 1803 Trade Drive in Ruston or contact us at (318) 255- 3136 extension 3; for Winn Parish visit the NRCS Natchitoches Field Office at 6949 LA Hwy 1 Bypass in Natchitoches or contact us at (318) 357- 8366 extension 3; for Caldwell Parish visit the NRCS Columbia Field Office at 7128 Hwy 165 South in Columbia or contact us at (318) 649-2651 extension 3; or visit the Dugdemona SWCD at 301 West Main Street, Suite 210 (upstairs in the Winn Parish Health Unit Building or contact us at (318) 628-4435.

WRP
WETLANDS RESERVE PROGRAM CALL FOR APPLICATIONS
Funding is Available for Wetlands Conservation on Private Agricultural Land
The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation is soliciting applications from landowners interested in restoring or enhancing wetlands on private agricultural land in Louisiana through the Wetlands Reserve Program (WRP).
The Wetlands Reserve Program provides financial incentives to landowners to restore their land to its natural wetland condition with an emphasis on enhancing wildlife habitats and environmental benefits.
Landowners have several options for enrollment in WRP. Options include restoration cost-share agreements, 30-year conservation easements, and permanent conservation easements—all designed to help landowners achieve personal land use goals.
The Wetlands Reserve Program is a national program authorized by the Farm Bill to assist eligible landowners restore, create, protect, and enhance wetlands on their property. Participation in this program is voluntary, and restoration is accomplished in an environmentally safe, cost-effective manner. Eligible lands are generally limited to existing pastureland or cropland with a predominance of wetland soils. Incidental acres of other lands (woodland) are considered when they are within pastureland or cropland applications.
Easement payments are based on the lowest of either the fair market value of the land using an appraisal or area-wide analysis, the Geographic Area Rate Cap, or an offer made by the landowner. The current Geographic Area Rate Cap for Caldwell, Jackson and Winn Parish is $1300 per acre.
Interested landowners are encouraged to contact the our office at 318-628-4438 or email us at dugdswcd@bellsouth.net. You may also contact the field offices that serve the Dugdemona SWCD. For Winn Parish contact the Natchitoches NRCS Field Office at 318-357-8366, ext 3, for Jackson Parish contact the Ruston NRCS Field Office at 318-255-3136, ext 3, or for Caldwell Parish contact the Columbia NRCS Field Office at 318-649-2651, ext 3 or stop by our office at 301 West Main Street, Suite 210 in Winnfield, LA.
Program information is also available online at: www.la.nrcs.usda.gov

Over 250 students submersed in water...
education!
On October 14, 2010 approximately 250 4th grade students from Caldwell, Jackson and Winn parish schools made the trip to Jimmie Davis State Park in Chatham, Louisiana to take part in an effort to raise an awareness of the need for water education and conservation. The objective of this annual event is to highlight the role of water in people’s everyday lives and to teach children of the science and history of water, one of our most essential natural resources.
Water resources are vital to the health and well-being of our society…..even here in Louisiana, where water is often taken for granted. Water is a life sustaining non-renewable resource. As water quality and conservation issues continue to grow it is important that our children learn how they can contribute to its wise use and protection. These 250 plus 4th graders, 24 educators and 40 volunteer high schools students gathered on the shores of Caney Lake, gained critical knowledge of water and other natural resources and some basic components of resource conservation and management. This knowledge was aquired through structured learning stations and exhibits where students actively engaged in hands-on water activities and investigations. Student groups rotated from one activity station to the next where activities included topics such as the hydrologic cycle, ground water, watersheds, soils, water quality and the Sparta Aquifer.
Each teacher and student left the festival with a commemorative bag containing useful educational items including journals for the students to record their experiences and knowledge gained from each of the activities. All educators who attended this festival strongly agree that these Project WET activities expose children to the important subject of resource conservation in a way that both compliments and reinforces traditional classroom learning. That, in itself, is fun and exciting. There is no question of the vast enjoyment the students receive from this type of activity participation.
The activity presenters at the event were from the Boeuf River, Caddo, Calcasieu, D’Arbonne, Dugdemona, LaSalle, Natchitoches, Northeast & Sabine Soil & Water Conservation Districts, the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), Trailblazer RC&D, Northeast Delta RC&D, the La. Dept of Agriculture & Forestry, FFA and 4-H students and teachers from Jackson parish and many very helpful Earth Team volunteers.
The Dugdemona SWCD gives it heartfelt thanks to the sponsors of this event. Our sponsors are the Caldwell Parish Police Jury, the Winn Parish Police Jury, Weyerhaeuser Company, Northeast Delta RC&D, Caldwell Bank & Trust, Jackson Parish Farm Bureau, Bank of Winnfield, P.K. Smith Motors and the Louisiana Loggers Association.

Vikkie - Your website is wonderful and the photos are beautiful! Since I grew up in Dodson and have grandchildren, nieces, and nephews that attend and teach school there, I especially enjoy information associated with school activities. The backyard conservation and flower, shrub, and tree planting information is greatly appreciated since my yard is in need of landscaping. We will be working on our yard in the Spring, and plan to get some trees at the Tree and Shrub sale in February. I appreciate your efforts in developing and maintaining the Dugdemona SWCD website. Keep up the good work!

Conservation Programs
Conservation programs cost-cost share programs made available to Louisiana landowner through the 2008 Farm Bill will have a beneficial impact on the adoption of conservation practices. These practices when installed or applied to technical standards, will increase net farm income. These are voluntary programs and will not impose any obligation or burden upon agricultural producers that choose not to participate.
There are numerous off-farm public benefits from on-farm conservation efforts. Some of the off-site benefits are attributable to improvements made to enhance freshwater and marine water quality and fish habitat, improved aquatic recreation opportunities, reduced sedimentation of reservoirs, streams, and drainage channels, and reduced flood damages. Additional benefits are from reduced pollution of surface and groundwater from agrochemical management, improvements in air quality by reducing wind erosion, and enhancements to wildlife habitat. For more information please go to our conservation program page.
All programs and services of the U.S. Department of Agriculture are offered on a nondiscriminatory basis without regard to race, color, national origin, religion, sex, age, marital status, or disability.
