National Association of Conservation Districts (NACD) Summer Meeting

Conservation tools rooted in results and ready for the field.

Abt is proud to sponsor the National Association of Conservation Districts' 2026 Summer Conservation Forum & Tours in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The gathering brings together conservation district leaders, U.S. Department of Agriculture representatives, and partners working on solutions that shape soil, water, wildlife, working lands, and producer services across the country.

As attendees explore Grand Rapids’ local farms and conservation areas, the forum offers an opportunity to focus on what effective conservation delivery looks like on the ground and the systems needed to support it.  Abt supports the technology behind conservation delivery — helping streamline complex processes, reduce administrative burden, improve access to technical and financial assistance, and equip field staff with intuitive, reliable tools grounded in the needs of producers, communities, and local conservation partners.

Connect with the Abt team at Booth XX to discuss mission delivery, partnership opportunities, and Abt's related work in conservation and farming technologies.
