Conservation Loans

Federal · FARM SERVICE AGENCY · #10.099

To provide access to credit for farmers who need and want to implement conservation measures on their land but do not have the “up front” funds available to implement these practices. Unlike FSA’s traditional farm ownership and operating loan programs that are targeted toward smaller and less financially established farmers, eligibility requirements for the CL program are expanded to permit FSA to provide assistance to some applicants who may be large and financially strong.
