Conservation Security Program (CSP) 

CSP is a voluntary conservation program and has a unique role among USDA programs. It identifies and rewards those farmers and ranchers who meet the highest standards of conservation and environmental management on their operations. It creates powerful incentives for other producers to meet those same standards of conservation performance on their operations, and provides public benefits for generations to come.

 

One Florida watershed was selected for the 2008 Conservation Security Program sign-up

 

CSP 2008 - Lower Choctawatchee in northern Florida.    Sign-up period is April 18 - May 16, 2008.
