The Conservation Reserve Program is an effective, voluntary approach to improving the environment using partnerships between individuals and the government. Landowners establish long-term conservation practices on highly erodible and environmentally sensitive land in exchange for 10-15 years of annual rental payments. They also receive cost-share assistance in adopting and maintaining those practices.
