Farm group attacks plan for conservation program
Washington critics say the Agriculture Department plan to pay farmers to protect natural resources will exclude most potential participants.

Officials cite budget limits and a watershed rotation as necessary for delivery. Senate aides back CSP as intended to cover all eligible producers.
