MANAGED GRAZING

The Managed Grazing Team at Golden Sands RC&D is here to provide farmers with resources, technical advice and grazing plans at no cost to the producer if working with the NRCS. The Grazing Team is grant funded to write grazing plans for the EQIP (cost-share) program provided by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS).

Cost-sharing

Get incentivized to farm better through the

NRCS EQIP (ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY INCENTIVES PROGRAM)

Through the EQIP program, producers can receive cost-sharing for fencing, waterlines, new seeding, as well as technical assistance.

Once enrolled in EQIP, farmers are also able to enroll in Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP) for additional cost-sharing incentives for enhancements to the grazing plan and farm operation.
