The Farm Service Agency recently announced enrollment periods for both general CRP and continuous CRP offers. Ross Loftin, FSA Director in Lee/Itawamba and Pontotoc Counties says the agency is now receiving offers for eligible acreage for the general CRP until February 28, 2020.

The general signup allows landowners to offer new eligible acreage as well as some acreage that expired from CRP in 2017, 2018, and 2019 as well as contracts expiring 9-30-2020. The general CRP offers landowners annual rental payments and cost sharing to establish an approved cover of grass or trees in exchange for removing the acreage from crop production.
