Get the most out of your accomplishments
Are you getting the most out of reporting your accomplishments in PRMS?  Check out these ideas to see if maybe you're missing something.
  • When you report a conservation practice, either management or structural, are you filling out an "Erosion Control" record also?  Many of our conservation practices list erosion control as a benefit or purpose. 
  • The practice you just finalized isn't one that's reportable in PRMS? If it had erosion control benefits you can report it as part of an "Erosion Control" system.
  • When you report "Conservation Systems" applied, are you capturing the practice(s) that led to this reporting item?  You should if available in PRMS
  • When you report a key conservation practice in PRMS did you also report the acres it benefited under "Conservation System Applied Not to the RMS Level".  If the practice had a beneficial effect, you should be reporting the acres benefited in this section.
