Amplifying Positive Land Use Practices through Partnerships
USDA announces Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities projects
(BROOKINGS, SD, Wednesday, September 14, 2022) – AgSpire, an organization that amplifies the implementation of positive land use practices through hands–on, customized plans with farmers and
ranchers, has been named project partner on multiple USDA Partnerships for Climate–Smart Commodities projects. As a part of these projects, AgSpire will continue their mission to provide customized solutions to farmers, ranchers, and landowners, and empower them to help make their operations more resilient, diversified, and holistically managed through information and expertise.
“Today’s announcement shows USDA’s commitment to advancing adoption and implementation of climate–smart practices, and we are thrilled to be part of that journey. AgSpire will bring its expertise in
conservation practice implementation to assist producers with adoption of practices that can create positive land use outcomes. Collaborations and partnerships are key to achieving the ultimate goal of creating shared societal benefits through the land for generations to come,” said Aline DeLucia, CEO of AgSpire.
With these projects, AgSpire will have the opportunity to touch over 4.3 million acres through working directly with producers to create tailored management plans. Powered by landowner advisors with
regional knowledge and expertise, AgSpire is dedicated to supporting producers as they work toward impactful outcomes that begin with changes on the land, and these projects will continue that mission.
