CHANGES FROM NOVEMBER 2002

• Continuous signup activity1, including CREP increased 24,747 acres, down from last December’s 37,177

acre increase. CREP and non-CREP activity1 increased 11,903 acres and 12,844 acres, respectively.

• Cumulative Signup 24 (FY 2002 continuous/CREP) activity1 through December 2002 is down 17% from

previous year’s Signup 23 (FY 2001 continuous/CREP) activity1 through December. 

• Farmable Wetland activity1 increased 3,491 acres, similar to November’s 3,940-acre-increase.

 1 Based on month in which contract data is recorded in Service Center files.
General Signup. Producers with eligible lands compete for acceptance based on an environmental benefits index

(EBI) during specified enrollment periods. Producers may submit offers below soil-specific maximum rental rates

to increase EBI ranking. The most recent general signup (Signup 20) was conducted during a 4-week period in

early 2000. About 2.3 million acres were approved. 

Continuous Signup. Producers with eligible lands may enroll certain high priority conservation practices, such as

filterstrips and riparian buffers, at any time during the year without competition. In addition to annual soil rental

payment and cost-share assistance, many practices are eligible for additional annual and up-front financial

incentives.

Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program (CREP). Under CREP agreements, Federal/State partnerships,

currently in 23 States, implement projects designed to address specific environmental objectives through targeted

CRP enrollments. Signup is held on a continuous basis, general signup practices may be included, and additional

financial incentives are generally provided. 

Farmable Wetland Pilot enrollment began in June 2001 under modified continuous signup provisions.

The accompanying tables are based on contract data developed and entered in CRP data files by USDA Service

Centers as of December 30, 2002, and are based on the physical location of the CRP contracted land. Some

adjustments have been made to correct miscoded data in the contract files. Farmable Wetland Pilot contracts are

not included in the continuous signup tables.

Contracts starting in FY 2004 are not included.
