National Resource Conservation Service (NRCS) Acting Chief Jason Weller has announced program sign-ups for the Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP) will be delayed due to the agency’s funding challenges. NRCS has chosen to wait until Congress grants more funding before beginning the sign-up process.
CSP is designed to help farmers and ranchers manage existing conservation projects and implement new ones on their land. The delay in sign-ups is due to a continuous resolution, which provides funds only to March 27. Weller said until appropriations committees come out with new numbers, the program does not have enough funds to begin a sign-up process.
