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.
The Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) is not explicitly mentioned in the "Big Beautiful Bill" (H.R. 1). The bill focuses on budget reconciliation and includes provisions for agricultural conservation, but it does not address CRP specifically, according to the Center for Agricultural Law and Taxation. CRP is set to expire at the end of 2025.
They will need to pass a farm bill. Last one was 2018.

Look
There's some articles written on it if you Google it... Changes seem farmer friendly.
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....

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.Look

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%

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!

Does anyone know if EBI of 202 is normal, or did they change anything to make it harder to get signed up?

It required more points this time. Partially due to limited number of acres available to enroll at 1.7 million. Its all about supply and demand. More acres available below the cap = likelihood of lower points being accepted.
Signup #64= 202 points,
#62 = 188 points,
#60 = 184 points,
#58 = 184 points,
#56 = 175 points.
Dont forget that continuous crp has almost 4 times the available practices to enroll, no competition, and simpler process. So expect much higher enrollment in continuous and lower in general.

Any bets that the price of the suppressors go up by around $200…

I received an email yesterday that my 3 re-enrollments were approved and they needed me to confirm I still wanted them before they sent it to nrcs for a conservation plan.
Previously wasn't continous litterally all the time any time? Or am I dreaming that.

Not dreaming at all- it was and should be. But the lack of complete farmbill has caused issues with authority to accept applications.
Now fsa is "batching" application reviews for consideration.
New government efficiency.

Anybody know if the new farm bill that was part of the OBBB changed the year window that crop eligibility determines CRP eligibility? We started farming some pasture several years ago to get it transitioned into CRP eventually.
