【 摘 要 】

Conservation Compliance ties eligibility of Federal farm program benefits to soil and wetland conservation.

Incentives would be lower on many farms if crop insurance premium subsidies were not contingent on meeting Compliance requirements.See related Webinar: Conservation Compliance: How Farmer Incentives are Changing in the Crop Insurance Era, Tues., Sept. 12, 1 PM EDT.See related Amber Waves article Conservation Compliance in the Crop Insurance Era.
