Conecuh County 2004 EQIP Program


Executive Summary

The local EQIP program signup for 2004 is open and signup is continuous. If you have a resource concern or problem on pastureland, cropland, or hayland on your farm that you need assistance in solving, you should come by the Natural Resources Conservation Service office and fill out an application. Our office is open from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday. The office is located at 102 Liberty Street Room 104 in Evergreen. Our phone number is (251) 578-1520 extension 3. Applications may also be filed at the Farm Service Agency at the above address, Room 102. 

The first batching period for ranking and prioritizing applications will be April 30, 2004. If all monies are not obligated with the first ranking, then a second ranking will be held 30 days after the first ranking. All applications received up until that date will be ranked and prioritized based on a state-wide ranking worksheet. Those applications with the highest point totals from this ranking worksheet will be funded first. The applications will be prioritized based on local concerns.

The local concerns that have been prioritized are:

  1. Grazing Lands
  2. Erosion/Soil Quality
  3. Water Quality (Animal Waste)
  4. At-Risk Species Habitat
  5. Water Conservation

Please refer to the state list for practices, cost-share rates, and restrictions.
