$1 Billion Program Seeks To Encourage Landowners to Implement Climate-Friendly Practices

April 20, 2022/0 Comments/in news-2022 /by mandr-fw

A new program by the U.S. Department of Agriculture will spend $1 billion to fight climate change by funding projects that help farmers and forest landowners implement management practices that lead to a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions.

The goal of the Partnerships for Climate-Smart Agriculture program is to implement climate-friendly conservation practices on working farms and forests while measuring and verifying the carbon and greenhouse gas benefits.

The USDA will award grants to public and private “partner” entities, who in turn will work with forest owners or farmers on the implementation of conservation practices, including technical and financial support. Eligible practices include afforestation and reforestation, planting for high carbon sequestration rates, forest stand management, and maintaining and improving forest soil quality.
