Soil and water conservation districts in Texas are locally governed agencies that provide technical assistance, educational programs, and access to federal and state conservation funding for landowners, farmers, and municipalities. Each district in Texas is overseen by its own elected board and tailors programs to the specific natural resource challenges of its county.
Soil Water Conservation locations are available in 32 cities across Texas. They are spread across 30 counties.
Cities with the highest concentration of conservation district office listings in Texas include Austin, San Angelo, Temple, reflecting areas with significant agricultural land or active conservation program participation.
Texas landowners and farmers interested in reducing erosion, improving water quality, or accessing USDA cost-share programs should reach out to their local district office — staff provide free technical consultations and can guide applicants through the EQIP and CSP program processes.
If you are a Texas farmer, rancher, or landowner considering a new conservation practice — such as cover cropping, grassed waterways, or filter strip installation — contact your local conservation district office to learn which USDA cost-share programs are currently funded and accepting applications in your area.
