The Agronomy Track (left) and the Engineering Track (right).

Thirty-four individuals attended Agricultural Conservation Technical Boot Camp Training – Level II from April 17-21, 2023. Attendees included staff from conservation districts, the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service, and affiliates.

The Level II annual training consists of two learning tracks: agronomy and engineering. The two tracks allow participants to focus more deeply on their area of study. The event features a balance of classroom work and fieldwork to give participants hands-on experience.

The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service and the State Conservation Commission sponsor the training. PACD works with these partners to coordinate the training.
