USDA Increases Incentives For Continuous CRP Sign-Up
The USDA has increased incentive payments for conservation practices implemented on land enrolled in the Continuous Conservation Reserve Program (CRP.) The USDA is upping the Practice Incentive Payment for installing practices, from 5 to 20 percent. Additionally, producers will receive a 10 percent incentive payment for water quality practices on land enrolled in CRP s continuous sign-up.
Local Farm Service Agency offices will automatically accept all offers provided the land meets eligibility requirements and the total CRP acres do not exceed the allowable limit set in the 2018 Farm Bill. General CRP sign-ups occur only about one time a year or less but the Continuous CRP is available just about anytime. I do remember there have been times when Continuous CRP was put on hold because of funding or CRP was at the maximum allowable limit set in the Farm Bill.
