FY-2003 WRP Contract Information
The following three maps display information on Wetlands
Reserve Program (WRP) contracts that were obligated in fiscal year
2003.
This voluntary program provides landowners financial
incentives and technical assistance for converting frequently flooded, marginal
agricultural land to its former wetland condition. Through WRP, the Natural
Resources Conservation Service provides technical assistance to landowners to
address wetland, wildlife habitat, water quality, and related natural resource
concerns on their land in an environmentally sound and cost-effective manner. In
FY-2003, NRCS allocated $294 million to enroll more than 1,100 contracts
covering more than 213,000 acres into the
program. Click on each map’s Data link for detailed
