Resource Conservation & Development Program
The purpose of the Resource Conservation and Development (RC&D) program is to
accelerate the conservation, development and utilization of natural resources,
improve the general level of economic activity, and to enhance the environment
and standard of living in designated RC&D areas. It improves the capability of
State, tribal and local units of government and local nonprofit organizations in
rural areas to plan, develop and carry out programs for resource conservation
and development. The program also establishes or improves coordination systems
in rural areas. Current program objectives focus on improvement of quality of
life achieved through natural resources conservation and community development
which leads to sustainable communities, prudent use (development), and the
management and conservation of natural resources. RC&D areas are locally
sponsored areas designated by the Secretary of Agriculture for RC&D technical
and financial assistance program funds.
