U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is encouraging government agencies, academic
institutions, and non-profit organizations to view this year’s Conservation
Reserve Program (CRP) assessment opportunities and to submit a brief proposal

- Using human
centered design to improve access to and the appeal of CRP across a
diversity of eligible producers.
- Collecting data
about the seed (or seedling) mixes planted on land enrolled in CRP,
- Tracking haying
and grazing and other managements on land enrolled in CRP,
- Developing an CRP
offer submission process that improves the customer experience and
increases conservation benefits, and
- Evaluating plant
composition and productivity on land enrolled in CRP using remote sensing
data and machine learning techniques.
