(KLZA)-- Farmers and ranchers with expiring Conservation Reserve Program contacts may now re-enroll in certain CRP continuous sign-up practices, or if eligible select a one-year contract extension.
The USDA's Farm Service Agency is also accepting offers from those who want to enroll for the first time in one of the country's largest conservation programs. FSA's 52nd sign-up for CRP continues until August 23.
The 2018 Farm Bill reauthorized the CRP continuous sign-up program this past December. This years program includes practices such as grass waterways, filter strips, buffers, wetland restoration and others. Continuous sign-up enrollment contracts last for 10 or 15 years.
Producers interested in applying for the CRP programs should contact their USDA service center by August 23.
