The USDA has extended the General Signup period for the Conservation Reserve Program.
The Department’s Robert Bonnie says by extending the original deadline of February 12th, the Biden administration will have time to evaluate and implement changes to get this neglected program back on track.
USDA will continue to accept offers as it considers ways to increase enrollment, and provide the opportunity for landowners to adjust or resubmit offers to take advantage of planned CRP improvements.
