USDA’s Farm Service Agency (FSA) is also
accepting offers from landowners who want to enroll for the
first time in one of the country’s largest conservation
programs. CRP signup opened June 3 and ends August 23.
This year’s CRP continuous signup includes practices, such as
grass waterways, filter strips, riparian buffers, wetland
restoration and others. View a full list of practices approved
for this signup. Continuous signup contracts last for 10 to 15
years. Soil rental rates are set at 90 percent of 2018 rates.
Incentive payments are not offered for these practices.
Producers interested in applying for CRP continuous practices,
or who want to extend their contract, should contact their USDA
service center by August 23.
