Compliance & Maintenance FAQs
What are the typical maintenance requirements for CRP acres?
Active stewardship is a contract requirement, not an option. Landowners must perform routine maintenance, including controlling woody growth and invasive species, to remain compliant. We simplify this process for you, handling all necessary on-site work to ensure your property meets FSA standards and stays in the program.
How often are CRP acres inspected by the FSA or NRCS?
Inspections can happen periodically throughout your contract. Typically, you'll receive a notice of inspection, and maintaining a clear record of your management activities helps ensure you pass without issues.
What happens if my CRP acres fall out of compliance?
Non-compliance can lead to financial penalties or the termination of your CRP contract. We work to proactively manage your land so you avoid these risks and maintain your programs positive standing.
Can you help with the documentation required for CRP compliance?
Yes, we provide landowners with clear summaries of all work performed, which can be shared with the FSA or NRCS to prove that appropriate maintenance has been conducted on your acres.
