A lot of CRP ground is coming out of the ten year program. $20 beans
compared to less than $6 beans was too big of an incentive. CRP ground
that had no fertilizer or pesticides on it in the last three years is
eligible for organic production upon exiting the Conservation Reserve
Program. (That would be almost all of the CRP ground.) I know of a lot of
CRP ground that is now in organic production.
