SUMMARY:PFI: Grazing CRP for Beginning Farmers
DESCRIPTION:The Adam family has farmed their land near Harper\, Iowa\, since 1851. Eric and Madison Adam are trying to manage the ground with the next 175 years in mind. One of the tools they’re using is grazing land set aside in the Conservation Reserve Program. Eric believes that CRP is an investment in soil health as part of a long-term crop rotation. But taking land out of production can be a barrier to adoption. \n  \nOne lesser-known but useful way Eric and Madison are adding value to CRP is by taking advantage of a rule allowing penalty-free grazing by beginning farmers. At this field day\, we’ll learn more about this option and how it fits into the Adams’ operation. Though Eric says his acres and number of goats are on the smaller end\, he knows the ideas are useful for larger operations as well.
