USDA’S Conservation Security Program has helped producers become better stewards of the land, says Georgia’s state conservationist, Leonard Jordan.
Suggested introduction cut two:

Suggested introduction for cut three:
Secretary Veneman announced recently the Conservation Security Program is expanding to 202 watersheds in 2005, up from 18 this year. Jordan encourages farmers to be on alert for sign-ups in their area.
