Future of CRP

I didn't know about any crp that you could mow during nesting season. All of ours you can only mow July 15- Sept 15 unless you're just spot mowing trees.. is it different "there"?
The first three years you can mow any time during establishment. After that you can spot mow during the nesting season to address invasives. You just need to let FSA know.
 
Look
I read in an article today they did pass a farm bill as well as the obbb...

Not sure of the merrit.
Looks like they did, includes changes to crp, PLC/ARC, Crop Insur, base acres, etc.... Not sure I understand what all of it means myself. For Example: a reduction in spending from conservation programs (-$1.8 billion, FY2025-2034), interaction effects (-$3.6 billion) and sequestration (-$2.2 billion). I heard they wanted to reduce NRCS dollars for helping people with program implementation efforts, I assume that's the "interaction efforts"? Sequestration application? Don't know....
There's some articles written on it if you Google it... Changes seem farmer friendly.

The 2018 Farm bill had roughly 59.7 billion for Conservation programs. If I understand what you posted correctly the CRP program as a whole took a 12.73% haircut. 7.6/59.7=12.73..........I think we can live with that.

Again, if I understand correctly it looks like SNAP the largest budget item in the Farm Bill took a 28.00% haircut. 185.9/663.8=28

The Farm bill as a whole took about a 13.86% reduction. 120.25/867.2=13.86%

Off topic - looks like they changed suppressor tax from $200 to $0 in OBBB. Still need the registration, but they're trying to change that too....

There's a lot to like in the OBBB!

I read somewhere else that the NFA will end 1-1-26 since it came into existence due to being a tax. But now that it is no longer a tax.....
 
Here's what I've found so far. So basically thr major change is the tax stamp reduced from $200 to $0.

This is a great news to me as the extra 200 was just a nuisance and only designed as a deturant.

Anyone who has hunted with one knows how usefull suppressors are and do have a place in the woods!
