The Department is currently accepting public comment on a new climate partnership initiative to create market opportunities for commodities produced using climate-smart practices. 

USDA will support a set of pilot projects that provide incentives to implement climate-smart conservation practices on working lands and to quantify and monitor the carbon and greenhouse gas benefits associated with those practices.
