Abstract

The EQIP program is designed to help agricultural producers and non-industrial forestland owners meet environmental standards set by the Federal, State, Tribal and local governments by providing financial and technical assistance on select projects. Financial assistance is available for conservation practices that address natural resource issues including the improvement of soil, water, plant, animal, or air resources. Contracts that provide financial assistance may be up to ten years in length (USDA NRCS, 2014).
