Abstract

The Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) was established in the conservation title of the Food Security Act of 1985. It created a long term cropland acreage reserve for the United States. Initially the program, managed by the Farm Service Agency of the United States Department of Agriculture, was targeted towards reducing soil erosion from highly erodible cropland. Through subsequent legislation the environmental emphasis of the CRP has been expanded to also achieve improvements in water quality and more recently to achieve enhancements in wildlife habitat.
