USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) in Alabama wants to remind producers and landowners the first program batching date for fiscal year 2022 Conservation Easements and Financial Assistance Programs is November 12, 2021. This includes both the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) and Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP). And Alabama NRCS Assistant State Conservationist for Programs, Steve Musser, says this year they are also offering Conservation Incentive Contracts.
For more information on this or any of the programs involved in this signup period, contact your local USDA Service Center, or go to the Alabama NRCS website.
