CRP and Conservation Programs on Minnesota Land

Land enrolled in CRP or another conservation program comes with payments and rules. Here's how a contract affects your use, your income and your timeline.

What does it mean when land for sale is enrolled in CRP or RIM?

CRP is a federal USDA contract with a start and end date and rules on use. RIM Reserve is a Minnesota conservation easement that is often permanent and stays with the land. Why it matters to you: the biggest question is whether a restriction will end, and when, before you plan food plots or building.
