Abstract: CRP (Conservation Reserve Program) renewal may depend on improved targeting of payments to maintain a significant portion of existing environmental and farm benefits at a reduced program cost. The authors consider three alternative renewal criteria: renewal of least expensive land first, renewal of most environmentally sensitive land first, and renewal of land according to the cost per unit of environmental benefit offered.
