Drought forces release of CRP lands in Franklin County
Severe heat drives the release of Conservation Reserve Program acreage for haying and grazing in Franklin County, with Osage and Coffey counties also affected. Farmers may hay up to half or graze up to three-fourths, reducing CRP payments by 25 percent. The move reflects harsh drought conditions across the Great Plains and tight forage supplies, as ranchers sign up while considering lower returns.
