Farmland Protection Program

Section 388 of the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform Act of 1996 (the 1996 Act) established the Farmland Protection Program (FPP). The Commodity Credit Corporation (CCC) administers the FPP under the general supervision of the Vice President of the CCC who is the Chief of the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS). CCC is requesting proposals from States, Tribes, and units of local government to cooperate in the acquisition of conservation easements or other interests in prime, unique, or other productive soil for the purpose of limiting non-agricultural uses of that land.
