"There are no conservation practice implementations for: specific county"


A practice may be unavailable for accounting in a specific region due to the practice either being a relatively novel practice with limited data or there is no NRCS practice prescription for this given region.

Requirements for a conservation practice to be included in COMET-Planner:

  • A nationally approved/recognized NRCS Conservation Practice with a soil carbon and/or GHG reduction benefit
  • An NRCS prescription on implementation
  • Data available on implementation and respective benefits (soil carbon and/or GHG reductions)
  • Joint approval and funding from USDA-NRCS and COMET-Team leadership


Requirements for additional conservation practice implementations (i.e., Add Legume Seasonal Cover Crop (with 50% Fertilizer N Reduction) to Irrigated Cropland) to be included in COMET-Planner:

  • An NRCS prescription on implementation
  • Data available on implementation and respective benefits (soil carbon and/or GHG reductions)
  • Joint approval and funding from USDA-NRCS and COMET-Team leadership


While the COMET-Team cannot guarantee the inclusion of an NRCS CPS implementation, please share to the team any feature or practice request. We can communicate to leadership COMET-user requests for potential additions to the tool.
