Hugh Hammond Bennett

Hugh Hammond Bennett (April 15, 1881 – July 7, 1960) was a pioneer in the field of soil conservation in the United States of America. He founded and headed the Soil Conservation Service, a federal agency now referred to as the Natural Resources Conservation Service.
Bennett was born near Wadesboro in Anson County, North Carolina and graduated from the University of North Carolina in 1903. Immediately upon graduation, he became a soil surveyor, and conducted soil studies, both in the United States and in other countries, that eventually convinced him that soil erosion was a serious problem facing the planet.

By the 1920s, Bennett was actively writing about soil erosion for popular magazines and scientific journals, with works appearing in publications like ''Country Gentleman'' and ''Scientific Monthly''.〔Bennett, H.H. 1934. Soil erosion - A national menace. The Scientific Monthly 39(5):385-404.〕〔Bennett, H.H. 1935. Facing the erosion problem. Science 81(2101):321-326.〕〔Bennett, H.H. 1936. Waste by wind and water. The Scientific Monthly 42(2):172-176.〕〔Bennett, H.H. 1938. Emergency and permanent control of wind erosion in the Great Plains. The Scientific Monthly 47(5):381-399.〕 He co-wrote a United States Department of Agriculture publication in 1928 titled ''Soil Erosion: A National Menace'', which was regarded as his most influential work and garnered the attention of Representative James P. Buchanan of Texas.〔Bennett, H.H. and Chapline, W.R. 1928. Soil erosion: a national menace. United States Department of Agriculture, Circular 033, 36 pp.〕 Buchanan, who was a member of the United States House Committee on Appropriations, helped obtain funding in 1929 for soil erosion studies in the United States. Bennett was also instrumental in the formation of the Soil Conservation Society of America (now the Soil and Water Conservation Society).
