One point I would like to make about CRP is that in my area (say a 5 mile radius from my farm). There are 4 people collecting CRP money. Guess how many are (or were ever) farmers. ONE! And he's collecting only on land that is commercially worthless for anything except pasture or hay (it floods every couple of years). The 3 people who are collecting CRP are "big hunters" who bought the farms pre-enrolled in CRP and live in town and will not consider renting it out to farmers even at considerably higher prices. CRP basically pays their property tax (and then some more as a dividend) on their hunting paradise and the farms rot away.
It's too bad, because I'm desperate for just a little bit more hay ground, but so is everyone else around here. The worst part is if they would rent out that land to me it would be alfalfa with a sudex rotation and they would have more deer on that land than they knew what do to with, but they would rather not have a farmer on their land "scaring away" their trophy bucks I guess :)
