Title: Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) Contractee Perceptions on Environmental Benefits and Management.
OMB Approval No.: New collection.
Abstract: The Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) is the Nation's largest environmental program with enrollment currently over 30 million acres. Continuing refinement of conservation and management provisions by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) continue to give greater importance to wildlife habitat. Program participants who desire to renew contracts often are required to improve the quality or composition of vegetation on land enrolled in the program. An evaluation of contractee perceptions about the validity of these requirements will assist USDA in refinement of CRP management and conservation policies in the 2002 Farm Bill. Description of contractee opinions about personal, local, and regional effects of the program will be useful for documentation of environmental and social effects of the program.

Frequency: One time.
Description of Respondents: Individual or households.
