Incorrect CRP Info

I received information this morning that a local television station broadcast that all CRP ground in Indiana had been released for haying/grazing. This report is incorrect. To date, Clinton County has not been released. Even if it had been released you couldn't do anything until after August 1 when the nesting season is over. And even then, certain types of CRP will not be eligible. The most important lesson in all this is: Before doing anything with CRP, CALL YOUR LOCAL USDA FARM SERVICE AGENCY OFFICE FIRST!.
