The Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP) is a specialized extension of the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP), managed by the Farm Service Agency (FSA) in collaboration with state governments, Tribal entities, and non-governmental organizations. CREP is designed to address region-specific environmental challenges through innovative partnerships and tailored conservation strategies.

CREP agreements are strategically developed to mitigate pressing conservation issues, such as reducing soil erosion, improving water quality, enhancing wildlife habitats, and restoring critical ecosystems. Through these efforts, CREP not only benefits the environment but also supports landowners in making impactful, sustainable changes to their properties.
By participating in CREP, you can play an active role in preserving natural resources while receiving financial and technical support to improve your land.
