Seeded Grass

Seeded grass stands may earn carbon credits provided that the acres have a FSA cropping history, were originally converted to grass AFTER January 1, 1999, and will be maintained as a permanent grass stand (limited haying and/or grazing.) Seeded grass offsets may be earned back to 2003 with proper documentation. Current contract holders will be contacted soon regarding these additional credits. Non-cropland acres are not eligible for this offset.
