Formed in 1936 under the Soil Conservation and Do mestic Allotment Act, the plant materials program assembles, tests, and releases plant materi als for conservation use. The program also determines tech niques for successful use and management of conservation species, facilitates the commer cial increase of conservation species, provides for the timely development and transfer of ef fective state-of-the-art applied plant science technology to solve eest conservation problems, and pro motes the use of plant science technology. To accomplish this purpose, NRCS maintains and operates a plant Materia] program as part of its ongoing coordinated con servation operations activities through a network of Plant Ma terial Centers (PMC) and Plant Material Specialists (PMS).

The New York Plant Materi als team has released 18 plant varieties to commercial produc tion. During the 1999 fiscal year alone, $1 million was generated through the sale of these conser vation plants from commercial nurseries and seed companies. This revenue resulted in an ad ditional $BOO,OOO in the pur chase of goods and services nationwide.
