Conservation Reserve


Has anyone had experience with putting land into the CRP program for wetlands? Any thoughts? Any problems selling property later?

Thanks in advance.

I had that offer a couple years ago, and I tossed it. I was concerned that our own land would be so restricted that we couldn't use it. What if we wanted to put a field road through that area? Could we put in a culvert? Stuff like that.

And I think that at some point they are going to want to "inspect" the land to make sure you're keeping the agreement. Would this give the government the right to forever trespass on our land without a warrant?

I know I'm a cynic, but they are not doing this out of the goodness of their corruptible hearts. You have to ask, "What's in it for them?"

It's your land and your call, 3C, but I avoided it like the plague.

Akam thanks! He is talking to more people about just these issues before he decides anything.
