Conservation
programs for working land (June 3, 2005)
The 2002 Farm Act increased conservation funding and
earmarked most of the increase for working-land payment
programs (WLPPs) rather than land retirement. Design
and implementation of WLPPs will largely determine
the extent to which environmental goals are achieved
and are cost effective. ERS examines a range of design
options and looks at environmental benefits and equity
considerations.
