Project Overview
Basics
CARCD-WCB Climate and Wildlife: Monarch Habitat - EMRCD
Planning/Design
The East Merced RCD Carbon and Pollinator Program is a joint effort undergone by East Merced RCD and East Stanislaus RCD to catalyze local carbon sequestration and habitat restoration efforts in central Merced County, focusing on implementation of recently completed Carbon Farming Planning efforts and the expansion of pollinator and monarch habitat.

Project Themes
Project Themes
Reducing the carbon and greenhouse gas emissions that drive climate change are necessary to increase our wildlife’s ability to survive the effects of climate change. This project reduces GHG in the atmosphere, improves soil health, improves water retention, and improves wildlife habitat by implementing carbon farm plans
This project addresses habitat loss by expanding monarch, pollinator, and other wildlife habitat on public and private lands. Project will also increase and improve monarch data gathered through the use of Integrated Monarch Monitoring Program (IMMP) data collection and monitoring protocols vital to shaping our understanding of how monarchs interact with their environment, documenting conservation efforts, and tracking the population and its habitat as they change over time.
Through our Carbon Farm Plan, we will expand the adoption of silvopasture and windbreaks on farms and ranches through demonstration sites, technical guidance documents, videos, factsheets, and increased technical assistance for landowners.
