Oklahoma Conservation Commission

Oklahoma Conservation Commission Non-regulatory state agency responsible for protecting Oklahoma's natural resources through voluntary programs for local solutions. https://conservation.ok.gov/

We provide assistance to conservation districts and work in the areas of soil conservation, erosion control, upstream flood control, abandoned mine land reclamation, conservation cost-share, environmental education, and water quality. In April 1937 Oklahoma passed the Conservation District Enabling Act, giving citizens the opportunity to form their own conservation districts. Today there is at lea

st one conservation district assisting citizens in every county in Oklahoma. The Act also created the non-regulatory agency known today as the Oklahoma Conservation Commission, which is home to several voluntary programs including the Oklahoma Wetlands Program, Blue Thumb Program, Locally-Led Cost-Share Program, Conservation Education Program, Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program, Small Watershed Upstream Flood Control Program, Abandoned Mine Land Reclamation Program, Carbon Program, and Nonpoint Source Water Quality Management Program.

🚨 Applications Are Now Open for the Advancing Markets for Producers (AMP) Initiative! 🚨

What if conservation and profitability didn't have to compete?

The Oklahoma Association of Conservation Districts is excited to launch the Advancing Markets for Producers (AMP) Initiative, a new opportunity for Oklahoma producers who are ready to strengthen their operation, improve their land, and build new market opportunities for regeneratively raised products.

AMP is more than a cost share program. It's an investment in producers and the systems that support long term success. Through conservation planning, technical assistance, market development, and financial support, participants will develop pathways that improve both operational performance and natural resource stewardship.

Whether you're a row crop producer, rancher, specialty crop grower, orchardist, or urban producer, AMP is designed for those who are ready to take their operation to the next level.

🌱 Invest in your land.
📈 Strengthen your operation.
🤝 Build your market.

At OACD, we believe conservation is a shared Oklahoma value. AMP is an opportunity to demonstrate that healthy soils, resilient operations, and profitable markets can work together to support the future of Oklahoma agriculture.

Applications close July 31, 2026.

Apply today: www.okconservation.org/amp
