County farmers asked to remit apps

for key conservation program

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service is accepting applications to help farmers improve water and air quality, build healthier soil, improve grazing and forest lands, conserve energy, enhance organic operations and achieve other environmental benefits.

NRCS has directed almost $23.7 million in financial assistance for fiscal 2013 to help Minnesota farmers implement conservation practices through the Environmental Quality Incentives Program, the agency’s largest Farm Bill conservation program.

“In 2012, Stearns County received $2.3 million in EQIP funds to assist farmers install conservation practices,” said Dennis Fuchs, Stearns County Soil and Water Conservation District administrator.

“The Environmental Quality Incentives Program offers farmers, ranchers and forestland managers a variety of options to conserve natural resources while boosting production on their lands,” said David Rose, a district conservationist. “This $23.7 million conservation investment helps improve environmental health and the economy of Minnesota’s rural communities.”

EQIP provides financial assistance for a variety of conservation activities, such as irrigation water management, reduced tillage, field buffers, rotational grazing systems and much more. The deadline for the next sign-up period in Minnesota is Jan. 18. Additional sign-up deadlines include: Feb. 15, March 15 and April 19.

Additionally, NRCS offers special initiatives through EQIP, including:
• On-Farm Energy Initiative: helps farmers conserve energy on their operations.
• Seasonal High Tunnel Initiative: helps farmers install high tunnels designed to extend the growing season into the cold months, increase productivity, keep plants at a steady temperature and conserve water and energy.
• Organic Initiative: helps farmers to install conservation practices on certified organic operations or those working toward organic certification.

To participate in EQIP, an applicant must be an individual, entity or joint operation that meets EQIP eligibility criteria. Applicants can sign up at the Waite Park NRCS service center.
