• Farm Ponds as Critical Habitats for Native Amphibians
  Constructed farm ponds represent significant breeding, rearing, and overwintering habitat for amphibians in the Driftless Area Ecoregion of southeastern Minnesota, western Wisconsin, and northeastern Iowa, a landscape where natural wetlands are scarce. Despite intensive agricultural use adjacent to the ponds, these ponds harbor an abundance of frogs and toads. This region contains thousands of farm ponds constructed with cost-sharing dollars from the U.S. Department of Agriculture and the states.
• Invasive Species Council
• National Resources Inventory (NRI)
  NRCS is exclusive in completing the NRI on a continual basis to monitor the trends and conditions of the soil, water, and natural resources on private lands throughout the states. Based on this critical information, decision makers and planners can set program priorities and target efforts where the needs are greatest.
