2006 Conservation Security Program (CSP)

The Conservation Security Program (CSP) is a voluntary program that provides financial and technical assistance to promote the conservation and improvement of soil, water, air, energy, plant and animal life, and other conservation purposes on Tribal and private working lands. Working lands include cropland, grassland, prairie land, improved pasture, and range land, as well as forested land that is an incidental part of an agriculture operation. The program provides equitable access to benefits to all producers, regardless of size of operation, crops produced, or geographic location.

Contract Modification Period for FY 2004 and FY 2006 CSP Contracts

CSP contract modification requests will be accepted between August 1 and September 15, 2006 for fiscal year 2004 and 2005 CSP contract holders for certain contract modifications.

CSP 2006 in Oregon

Agriculture Secretary Mike Johanns announced the 2006 Conservation Security Program (CSP) sign-up was held February 13, 2006 to March 31, 2006 in 60 watersheds nationwide. Based on the projected availability of funds the Upper Grande Ronde and Upper Klamath Lake watersheds in Oregon were selected to participate in this year's Conservation Security Program.

Producers with the majority of their land inside these watershed boundaries have met the first criteria for eligibility in this program. Producers must fill out a self-assessment to apply for the program. In addition, producers need to provide records of their conservation work. Oregon has developed a Conservation Records book to assist with organizing records for the program.
