Understanding the Agricultural Conservation Program and its role
The Agricultural Conservation Program ACP is a nationwide effort by the USDA and ASCS to share costs with farmers for soil, water, woodland, and wildlife conservation. It covers 50 to 80 percent of costs, supports erosion control, vegetative cover, and water use efficiency, and aids recovery after disasters. Over 1.25 million farmers participate, with technical services provided by the Soil Conservation Service.
