The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Wyoming State Component is offering Conservation Innovation Grants (CIG) to stimulate the development and adoption of innovative conservation approaches and technologies. This grant is for implementing proven, on-the-ground conservation solutions, encompassing pilot projects and field demonstrations. CIG aims to transfer successful technologies and management systems into NRCS policy or the private sector, boosting accessibility and use. It is vital to note that this grant does not fund research or hypothesis formulation. Instead, it supports applying already demonstrated technologies, fostering knowledge sharing among communities and institutions for practical conservation advancements.
