Biography

Detra Boutwell

I completed my Master of Science Degree in Agronomy and Soils at Auburn University during 1998.  I started with NRCS in May 1998 as a State Office WAE working with the Resource Conservation Staff.  After 6 months in the State Office, I began my training as a Soil Conservationist in the Tuskegee Field Office in Macon County.  From there I moved to Geneva County and worked for three years in training on activities relating to conservation planning and cost-share program administration.

 In May 2002 I returned home here in Brewton as the District Conservationist for Escambia County.  It is my desire to work closely with our landowners and producers in their efforts to be good stewards of the land, considering conservation measures for soil, water, air, plant, and animal. 

 I would like to welcome you to my office to learn about what the Natural Resources Conservation Service can do for you as we work together to preserve the productivity of our farmland, timberland, wildlife recreational areas, water sources, and landscape beauty.

My SCS/NRCS career began in Escambia County on June 4, 1979 as a Soil Conservation Technician. Over the past 23 years I have worked across the State of Alabama in different roles and have met some great people and hopefully assisted them in solving their natural resources problems. I have made many friends and some of the best are the people of Escambia County. My goal has been and continues to be working with people and leave this place a better place for our children and the next generations that will follow. We are given the job of conserving and protecting our natural resources so lets continue to work together to achieve the goal.
