Farm Agronomic Practices Program

Program Overview

The Farm Agronomic Practices (FAP) Program provides Vermont farms with grants to install soil conservation practices. 

Grants are limited to $10,000 per farm operation per calendar year [January 1- December 31]. There is no competitive review process: funding is awarded in the order that applications are received. 

Applying does not guarantee that you will receive funding.

The FAP program also provides farms and service providers with Agronomic Training grants to attend trainings on agricultural water quality regulations and/or the impacts of agricultural practices on water quality. 

Practices that are installed before applying to FAP cannot be reimbursed.

Practice Requirements and Payment Rates

1) Cover Crop

Payment Rate: $55 per acre if planted before Oct 1, or $40 per acre if planted before Oct 10.

Practice Requirements: Cover Crop payment supports annual cropland to be planted to cover crops for erosion protection during the non-growing season. All cover crops must be seeded at highest recommended rate to provide effective soil coverage and minimize nutrient runoff during the non-growing season. “Early” cover crops must be planted prior to October 1 and may be planted using any method. Regular season cover crops must be planted prior to October 10 and must be drilled or incorporated. Cover crops planted after October 10 will not be reimbursed.

2) Crop to Hay Rotation

Payment Rate: $60 per acre. 

Practice Requirements: Crop to Hay payment supports annual crop land to be seeded down into perennial forages for pasture or hay production as part of a crop rotation. This practice does not apply to the establishment of annually planted and harvested food, fiber, or oilseed crops. Fields are only eligible for payment in the year they are seeded down. Nurse crops such as oats, barley, or peas are recommended to quickly establish soil cover and protect the crop during the early stages of establishment. Planting method and seeding rate must be appropriate for the seed type and provide full soil coverage.

3) Rotational Grazing

Payment Rate: $30 per acre. 

Practice Requirements: Rotational grazing payment supports well managed rotational grazing of perennial pastures with ruminant livestock. Livestock must be rotated at least twice per week and excluded from surface water, and at least three inches residual vegetation must be maintained after grazing. Livestock access to surface water at well-managed discrete watering areas and livestock crossings are allowable only when no other available options exist. Grazing plans, grazing maps, and records that indicate livestock are rotated at least twice per week to adequately rested pastures are required. Land planted to annual crops within the past year or land cleared of forest within the last five years are not eligible.

4) No Till Crop Planting

Payment Rate: $15 per acre. 

Practice Requirements: No Till payment supports the planting of annual crops without the use of tillage. A minimum of 30 percent of the soil surface must be covered by uniformly distributed plant residue after planting. There must not be any full-width soil disturbance performed from the time immediately following harvest or termination of one cash crop through harvest or termination of the next cash crop in the rotation, regardless of the depth of the tillage operation. Full-width harrowing, chisel plowing, field cultivating, tandem disking, or vertical tillage is not allowable under this practice. Cover crop planting must be drilled or broadcast, not otherwise incorporated. Manure injection with soil surface closure at time of injection is allowable under this practice.

5) No-Till Pasture and Hayland Renovation

Payment Rate: $30 per acre. 

Practice Requirements: No-Till Pasture and Hayland Renovation payment supports the use of no-till drill equipment and/or frost seeding to improve pastures and/or hayland without the use of tillage. Planting method should provide reasonable expectation of seed to soil contact. Seeding rates must provide full soil coverage and be adequate to accomplish improvement of forage/stands in pasture and hayland. Frost seeding must occur on non-snow-covered ground in March or April and include legumes in seed mix.

6) Manure Injection

Payment Rate: $30 per acre. 

Practice Requirements: Manure Injection payment supports subsurface injection including disk, shank, and grassland manure injection, injected below soil surface with a single implement. Chisel plowing or disk harrowing fields within two weeks of practice installation is not allowable. All injection must follow manure application standards of the Vermont Required Agricultural Practices rule including application of nutrients within agronomic recommendations.

About Us

In the mid-1980s, a rapid rise in housing prices and an increase in the pace of development threatened the rural character and historic settlement patterns of Vermont. As a result, in 1986, a coalition of affordable housing, conservation, and historic preservation advocates approached the state legislature with a plan to form a unique agency that would review and fund projects to address a range of community needs. In response, the Legislature passed the Vermont Housing and Conservation Trust Fund Act in 1987.

The newly created Vermont Housing and Conservation Board, or VHCB, was charged with a dual goal mission:

to create permanently affordable housing and conserve and protect Vermont’s agricultural, forest, recreational, and natural lands, as well as historic properties. Since our founding, we have remained true to this mission by supporting projects that benefit Vermont communities in perpetuity, guided by our core values: equity and access, affordability and economic vitality, environmental sustainability and resilience, and quality of life.

Donated Easement Funding Program

VHCB Farmland Conservation Program

The Vermont Farmland Conservation Program is focused on retaining the state’s quality agricultural land base in strong farming regions of the state. 

Eligible applicants for this funding are nonprofit conservation organizations, municipalities, and qualified state agencies. 

Funding Sugarbush Projects

Maple sugaring is part of Vermont’s heritage. It’s also an important and rapidly growing part of Vermont’s agricultural economy. Sugarbushes also contribute to Vermont’s scenic landscape. The 2018 Farm Bill removed the forested acreage limit for working sugarbush conservation using USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Agricultural Conservation Easement Program (ACEP) funds. This has enabled VHCB to conserve more sugarbushes as farm projects. 

Types of Projects, in General

VHCB will consider funding the purchase of conservation easements on working sugarbushes provided that (1) the applicant for VHCB funds is an eligible applicant, (2) the minimum eligibility criteria are met (see Appendix 2 of attached PDF document), and (3) a VHCB-approved easement coholder (approved stewardship partner) has stated at the time of application that it is willing to participate.

VHCB expects sugarbush projects to meet all the requirements for NRCS funding. Should a landowner not be eligible for NRCS funding, VHCB in its discretion, may consider funding the project using state funds only, subject to the availability of such funds within funding targets set by the VHCB Board.

Projects that are not active sugarbushes, but that are managed for timber or other uses, should apply as a natural area or outdoor recreation project, or under VHCB Guidelines for Privately Owned Managed Forestland Projects, even if sugar maples are a predominant species.

The Vermont Farmland Conservation Program is focused on retaining the state’s quality agricultural land base in strong farming regions of the state. By focusing on conserving contiguous blocks of farmland in traditional farming communities, VHCB’s Farmland Conservation Program helps to ensure that farms are not isolated by residential development and communities can continue to support a healthy range of businesses that serve and rely on neighboring farms.

State-Significant Farmland Program 

The Board evaluates farmland applications in a two-step process. Pre-applications are submitted by an eligible entity (typically a land trust), and reviewed by a committee composed of staff from VHCB, the Natural Resources Conservation Service, the Vermont Agency of Agriculture, the Vermont Department of Environmental Conservation, and Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department. If the project meets VHCB’s eligibility criteria, it is approved for VHCB cost-share of an appraisal to determine the value of the conservation easement.

Applications for funding are developed for those projects that have been approved as pre-applications, and submitted for consideration at one of the Board’s regularly scheduled meetings. Board evaluation is based upon soil quality, location, farm infrastructure, management, and other resources brought to the project. There is a funding cap of $550,000 per application and $4,200 per acre.
