The Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) has announced many changes to the Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP), the nation’s largest conservation program with more than 70 million acres enrolled.
Beginning with the new enrollment period planned later this year, the updated CSP will roll out an expanded array of new enhancements to provide conservation-minded producers with more options to improve conditions on working lands.
“NRCS has developed new CSP tools that function similarly to other standard NRCS tools which will better integrate CSP into the suite of NRCS conservation programs,” they state. “With these new tools, producers will be able to see up front why they are or are not meeting stewardship thresholds, allowing them to pick practices and enhancements that work for their conservation objectives. The new tools also allow producers to see potential payment scenarios for conservation early in the process, allowing them to better evaluate their conservation options.”
