LaSalle County Soil and Water Conservation District

LaSalle County Soil and Water Conservation District Putting conservation practices on the land is a top priority for the LaSalle County Soil & Water Conservation District.

Conservation practices such as cover crops, filter strips, and grass waterways are all practices used to help reduce soil loss and decrease erosion on cropland. Through the Conservation Practices Program (CPP) local landowners have the opportunity to put these practices on the land at a fraction of the cost.

This is why we should wait until August to mow the ditches, or waterways or filter strips. Three different nests of Red Winged Blackbird. Three very mad birds!

The 4th graders that were at the Fall Rasmusen Nature Day buried cotton underwear to see what would happen. I dug them up a few days ago. The soil health of our timber is good. The elastic was all that was left!
