From the meeting
The 2027 Non-Structural Agricultural Best Management Practices Policy covered WBIF-funded agricultural BMP implementation for the Lower St. Croix Watershed Partnership. It set contract terms for cover crops, nutrient management, prescribed grazing, no-till and strip-till, conservation cover, conservation crop rotation, and pasture and hay planting.
Rates included $50 to $500 per acre or year depending on the practice, and practices could run one to three years, with some contracts longer. Technical services may come from partner staff, NRCS, or a technical service provider. The policy also required compliance with the Minnesota Seed Law and NRCS standards.
