New Jersey Audubon's Kati DePaola discusses Northern Bobwhite Quail ecology and conservation programs.

2-Minute Conservation Practice Videos

As part of the Aquatic Connectivity Framework, these practices will be implemented in target geographies across 16 states to achieve landscape-scale improvements in aquatic habitat conditions.

Conservation Practice #396 Aquatic Organism Passage - ACF Conservation Practices

Aquatic Organism Passage is the modification or removal of barriers that restrict or impede movement of aquatic organisms. This video explores how the Native Village of Tyonek implemented this conservation practice in Tyonek, Alaska.

Conservation Practice #657 Wetland Restoration - ACF Conservation Practices

Wetland Restoration is returning a former or degraded wetland to its previous wetland condition. This video explores how Nathan Hudson in Laurel, DE, is using this practice to return farmland to its original condition as a wetland, providing wildlife habitat and improving water quality. (Video features wetlands throughout Delaware.)

Conservation Practice #345/329 Reduced Till/No Till - ACF Conservation Practices

No Till is maintaining crop residue throughout the year and planting directly into it. This video explores how Blaine Hitchens in Laurel, DE, is using this practice on his cropland to improve his soil health and reduce his input costs.

Conservation Practice #391 Riparian Forest Buffers - ACF Conservation Practices

A riparian forest buffer is an area of trees or shrubs located adjacent to a body of water. The vegetation extends outward from the water body for a specified distance necessary to provide a minimum level of protection or enhancement. This video explores how Forrest Pritchard implemented this conservation practice on his farm in Berryville, Virginia.

Conservation Practice #327 Conservation Cover - ACF Conservation Practices

Conservation cover is establishing and maintaining perennial vegetative cover to protect soil and water resources on land retired from agricultural production or other lands needing permanent protective cover that will not be used for forage production. This video explores how Darrell Kjerstad implemented this conservation practice on his farm in Quinn, South Dakota.

WRE Program Wetland Reserve Easements - ACF Conservation Practices

Wetland Reserve Easements help private and tribal landowners protect, restore and enhance wetlands which have been previously degraded due to agricultural uses. This video explores how the Pokagon Band of Potawatomi Indians and NRCS are working together to implement this practice in North Liberty, Indiana.

Conservation Practice #580 Streambank Protection - ACF Conservation Practices

Streambank and shoreline protection consists of applying vegetative or structural measures to stabilize and protect banks of streams, lakes, estuaries, or excavated channels from scour or erosion. This video explores how Stoney Burningham implemented this conservation practice in Panguitch, Utah.
