General Signup. Producers with eligible lands compete nationally for acceptance based on an environmental benefits index (EBI) during specified enrollment periods. Producers may submit offers below soil-specific maximum rental rates and select wildlife-enhancing vegetative covers to increase EBI ranking. Continuous (Non-CREP) Sign-up. Producers with eligible lands may enroll certain high priority conservation practices, such as filter strips, riparian buffers, and wetlands at any time during the year without competition. In addition to annual soil rental payment and cost-share assistance, many practices are eligible for additional annual and one-time up-front financial incentives. Lands enrolled under various initiatives are included in this category. Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP). Under CREP agreements, Federal/State partnerships, implement projects designed to address specific environmental objectives through targeted CRP enrollments. Sign-up is held on a continuous basis, general sign-up practices may be included, and additional financial incentives are generally provided. Currently, there are 47 agreements in 34 States. Farmable Wetland Program (FWP). Producers enroll small non-flood plain wetlands, and new practices added by the 2008 Farm Bill, under modified continuous sign-up provisions. Grasslands. Enrollments are to support grazing operations and to preserve and restore grasslands. No cropping history is required. The accompanying tables are based on contract data developed and maintained in CRP data files by USDA Service Centers through the end of December 2015 and are based on the physical location of the CRP contracted land. Some adjustments have been made to correct miscoded data in the active contract files.
