Reminder: CRP General Sign-Up Opens March 14

Producers interested in offering land in an effort to protect millions of acres of topsoil from erosion and improve the nation’s natural resources, will be given the opportunity beginning next week. Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack announced that the next general sign-up for the Conservation Reserve Program will open March 14 and continue through April 15. This is the second consecutive year that USDA has offered a general CRP sign-up. Those interested should consult their local Farm Service Agency county office.
