By Submitted

03/16/2023

(KLZA)--Nebraska USDA Farm Service Agency (FSA) along with several partners in conservation will be conducting informational meetings for agricultural producers and private landowners interested in the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) opened a CRP General signup in February, and it runs through April 7, 2023.

CRP is a cornerstone voluntary conservation program offered by USDA. General CRP helps producers and landowners establish long-term, resource-conserving plant species, such as approved grasses or trees, to control soil erosion, improve water quality and enhance wildlife habitat on cropland. In return landowners receive annual rental payments.

CRP General signup informational meeting dates, times and locations include:

Tuesday - March 21, 9 a.m., Humboldt - Humboldt Ag Building, 1034 4th St.

Monday - March 27, 1 p.m., Fairbury - Jefferson Co. Fair, 4-H Building, 56885 PWF Rd.
