Some big time funding is now available for North Dakota
farmers and ranchers if they choose to use some conservation
practices.
It's a pilot program by the North Dakota Farmers Union,
providing $100 per acre or $100 per animal for any
producer who enrolls.
It's for conservation practices like no till, reduced till, prescribed
grazing, cover crops and other practices that benefits soil help
those with the Farmers Union say it helps producers by
putting more money into their pockets while also helping the
environment with more conservation going in the landscape.
And ultimately, I mean, we know that there's more market
pressures for producers to to produce crops and livestock with
lower carbon emissions, frankly.
And so I think this is a good opportunity for
us to learn how we can help producers adapt to
that and a streamline conservation delivery.
If producers are interested, application windows will be open in
early January.
