By Nebraska Extension Office - Northern Panhandle
CRP Outreach Meeting
Chadron American Legion
Tuesday, March 21st from 1 PM to 4 PM
This meeting will cover all things CRP, including information on CRP Grassland. A working lands type of CRP that will pay landowners an annual payment on their grass AND allow grazing. The only caveat is they will need to agree upon a stocking rate they work out with the NRCS. Often, the prescribed grazing isn’t too different from how most folks currently graze their land, and they can often get up to as much as $15 an acre.
If you have any questions or would like more information, please contact Mike Klosterman, Sr. Farm Bill Wildlife Biologist, Pheasants Forever, Inc. and Quail Forever, at (308) 632-2195 ext. 3 or Kelly Mildebrandt, Alliance Farm Bill Biologist, at 414-779-1619.
