Will the Government Pay You To Practice Conservation ?
The answer is YES…assuming
you meet the eligibility requirements. There is currently a federal-state conservation program available for people who own
cropland that is adjacent to any eligible water body, including streams, rivers and other water bodies. The program is called
the Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP), and the practices include:
(1) filter strips, (2) hardwood tree planting, (3) riparian buffers, (4)
bottomland tree planting, (5) wetland restoration, (6) native grasses, and (7) wildlife habitat.
For more information on CREP click here.
