The USDA has announced it will allow producers to terminate their Conservation Reserve Program contract if it’s in the final year of the agreement.
Farm Service Agency Administrator Zach Ducheneaux says the flexibilities will help address global food supply challenges.
“In response to the anticipated demand based on Putin’s invasion of Ukraine and the impact to the global food supply there, we heard from the countryside that our producers want to get ready to meet that need and this is one of the tools that we can offer to help those producers do that,” he says.
