DNREC opens sign-ups Kent Conservation District’s Cover Crop Cost-Share Program

Posted

The Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental control has announced that sign-ups are now open for the Kent Conservation District’s Cover Crop Cost-Share Program.  

The popular cost-share program provides Kent County farmers with assistance to offset seed, labor, and equipment costs when planting fall cover crops that help protect local water quality, build healthy soils, and capture carbon from the atmosphere. 

Partial funding for the program is provided by DNREC, through Federal grants including the Clean Water Act Section 319 grant and the Chesapeake Bay Implementation Grant. 

For more information on the KCD’s Cover Crop Program, visit www.kentcd.org or call 302-608-5370. The sign-up period ends Aug. 30.
