Description

The Indigenous Stewardship Methods and NRCS Conservation Practices guidebook provides guidance to employees of the U. S. Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and to indigenous cooperators who work with NRCS. It provides a sensitive process in which knowledge is shared, allowing employees to incorporate the indigenous knowledge into NRCS’ assistance through its conservation practices. The indigenous perspective of living in harmony with the earth and the agency perspective of scientific and experiential learning are portrayed in the words of the guidebook.
