FSA Accepting Applications for New Round of BCAP Project Areas

The Farm Service Agency is now accepting applications for the next round of the Biomass Crop Assistance Program project areas. “BCAP provides incentives to farmers and forest landowners to grow non-food crops to be processed into biofuels – a critical element of our national energy strategy to address high fuel prices and reduce reliance on foreign oil,” said FSA Administrator Bruce Nelson. Project areas where these crops are grown will be selected from proposals producers or biomass facilities submit to FSA. Applications must be submitted by April 23. Learn more or submit a proposal.
