FARM BILL: CRP Enhancement Program (CREP)
CREP is an existing program that takes a multiple landowner, regional approach (e.g., Delta) to implementation of CRP agreements. Like all Farm Bill conservation programs, CREP is voluntary. Because of its targeted regional approach, CREP offers greater flexibility for the unique circumstances of an area than under individual non-CRP contracts. A CREP approach also offers greater opportunities for the provision of regulatory relief under the federal Endangered Species Act for participating growers. CREP is intended to integrate state and federal conservation assistance, and therefore, requires a state match and the endorsement of the affected state's Governor.
