CRP changes allow early release and one year extension
USDA will permit early removal of conservation cover for CRP contracts and offer a one year extension for eligible land expirations. The goal is to enroll highly erodible land, with state CFSA designation required for arid or summer fallow areas. In Anderson County three farmers qualify for extension, while signups face interest and guidance from CFSA staff.
