Wildland Fire
Now, climate change is fueling unprecedented droughts, longer fire years and more severe wildfires. Alongside federal, state and local partners, USDA is aggressively suppressing new fires, while working to adapt communities, ecosystems to be more fire resilient and find solutions to the changing climate.
USDA coordinates fire response through the National Interagency Fire Center (NIFC) and brings thousands of firefighters, support staff, air and ground resources to bear on wildfires across the country.
