Soil and water conservation urged by NACD official

Horvath of Stevens Point warns growing population and land use pressure threaten soil and water quality. He cites erosion losses, no till farming, and no tax on cost share funds, urging local districts to push NACD efforts and educate the public.

Public comment sought on conservation proposals

State conservationist Clifton McQuire said the RCA proposals will be open for public review until January 15, 1982. The preferred program is a nonbinding recommendation funded as a block grant to local districts, prioritized for streambank and watershed erosion and water quality, with documents available at SCS offices and libraries.
