The U.S. Department of Agriculture is seeking proposals for projects to improve agricultural and nonindustrial private forest landsthrough the Cooperative Conservation Partnership Initiative (CCPI). About $5 million will be made available in fiscal year 2010. CCPI helps agricultural producers and forest landowners address conservation priorities at the local, state, multi-state, or regional levels; meet federal, state, and local regulatory requirements related to production; cooperate in installing and maintaining conservation practices; and develop and demonstrate innovative conservation practices and delivery methods, including practices associated with specialty crop and organic production as well as precision agriculture.
