#MonarchMonday: Conservation Choices

The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) offers more than three dozen conservation practices that can benefit monarch butterflies by managing for healthy stands of milkweed and high-value nectar plants, and protecting these stands from exposure to pesticides. While many of these practices may target improving grazing lands or boosting soil health, simple tweaks to the practice can yield big benefits for monarchs. The variety of available practices offer producers many choices for how they can best help monarch butterflies and address other natural resource concerns on their land.
