Rural Investment to Protect our Environment (RIPE) is a farmer-led non-profit advancing a voluntary stewardship program that provides a reasonable return to farmers as part of a national bipartisan climate policy. Our RIPE100 policy plan enables farmers of all sizes and types to earn $100 per acre from conservation practices that deliver public value through carbon sequestration, soil health, water quality and other environmental services.

In California, The State Water Efficiency and Enhancement Program, or SWEEP, is a grant to help improve water systems and reduce greenhouse gases for growers. This year, growers can get up to $200,000 for a field to upgrade to soil moisture monitoring systems, add drip systems, do pump retrofits, add a variable frequency drive and even install renewable energy to reduce on-farm water use and energy.
I have spent months listening to Zoom meetings and learning about the program to make sure our customers can get the funding for this program. The cool thing about it is that you can put up just a little bit of money and have the rest of it paid for.
If you live in California and want to know more about the program, you can message me. I work at Agri-Valley Irrigation in Fresno. We can start getting you set up that way you can have the paperwork ready to submit for the program in October.

"You should be able to tell from my blog that I am a big fan of soil health/regenerative agriculture. ... With all this in mind, however, ... I'm getting worried that we are trying to break this approach to farming and ranching down into a simplistic laundry list of specific things you have to do each and every year on each and every acre instead of recognizing that every acre is a little different and that every producer has a different reality. ... All I can suggest is that maybe we take a little time to step back from the checklist and take a broader view of what needs to be done on an individual farm or ranch."

"Bottom line, CRP now makes more financial sense for producers while also providing a bigger return on investment in terms of natural resource benefits. The General and Grasslands signups are part of a broader suite of tools available through CRP to integrate key conservation practices on our nation's working lands."

"Cover crops are often part of a suite of conservation practices that comprise a farmer’s soil health management system. Other conservation practices, such as no-till farming and a written nutrient management plan, are more common on fields with cover crops than on fields without cover crops."

“Although the landowners receive annual payments for these wetlands under USDA programs, it’s downstream communities that see the water quality benefits. Farmers want to do the right thing for the land and waters on which they farm, but also for their bottom line; sometimes there’s a lack of resources to do this efficiently and/or financially.”
