Join NRCS Chief Aubrey J.D. Bettencourt as she "Dishes the Dirt" on how the agency is empowering Arizona producers to integrate and modernize conservation practices to increase efficiencies in the field – from a third-generation onion transplant producer who was able to upgrade his irrigation pumping system through the agency's EQIP program, ultimately cutting down on water and diesel fuel use – to the Gila River Indian Community, which has worked with NRCS to modernize over 60 miles of canal infrastructure and revitalize their agricultural lands.
