The Evaluation of Soil Carbon Levels on Post-contract Conservation Reserve Program Lands in Southwestern North Dakota using Multiple Agricultural Use Practices
(North Dakota State University, 2010)
The Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) removes highly erodible lands from
production for a contract period of 10 to 15 years. During the contract period permanent
