<br />LAND CONSERVATION AND MANAGEMENT <br /> <br />COLORADO <br />State and Federal agencies should assist local soil conservation <br />districts, water conservation districts, water conservancy districts, and <br />county and city governments to remedy watershed problems such as flooding, <br />sediment, and impaired drainage. within the Missouri Basin, several watershed <br />projects and a number of Resource Conservation and Development projects which <br /> <br />are pending authorization should be moved forward. <br /> <br /> <br />IOWA <br /> <br /> <br />Iowa has established a priority system whereby agriculture has first <br /> <br /> <br />priority for precipitation and the soil moisture resource. Conservation <br /> <br /> <br />tillage practices, crop varieties, and rotations to encourage infiltration of <br />precipitation into the ground are an integral part of the water management <br />program for the State. Increased attention and support of the soil <br />conservation district and state university extension programs are also a part <br />of the state's water management program. <br />Agricultural management practices that reduce runoff, preserve and <br /> <br /> <br />replenish soil moisture, and include water conservation should be implemented. <br /> <br /> <br />The state soil conservation program should be strengthened. Agricultural land <br /> <br /> <br />in the State should be protected and utilized in accordance with its <br /> <br /> <br />capabilities. Permanent soil, less intensive cropping patterns, and properly <br />managed pasture should be adopted to bring soil losses within acceptable <br />limits. Increased State funding of cost-share assistance for these practices <br />is recommended. <br />Ongoing research and educational programs illustrating and documenting <br />conservation tillage methods as a part of good agricultural management <br /> <br />practices should be continued and intensified. <br /> <br />G-22 <br />
