We met with the NRCS as they are facilitating the easements now and we are planning on a site visit. I'd like to be able to enroll 60 of our 117 acres of crp into an easement yo hopefully get the ground back to its natural state (wooded wetlands). The portion of interest would be an area that would be kiddy corner to state land across a road, and would be an area that we can't hunt and haven't really been on before. It's off the road, and is mostly willow and WET. I figured it'd be a good time to enroll the land in an easement and help with paying the cabin we are remodeling and look at using cash for future expansion. Keeping half our CRP will keep the income stream intact to offset taxes.
Minnesota has the RIM program, which I've heard can be a mutual effort with WRP. Anybody have anything of value to share about easements? I know they work in the right situation, and I know they bring great difficulties in selling further down the road.
What are differences with RIM what are payment terms like? I've read 60% non crop and 90% crop for land values. Ownership of a year in RIM vs 7 years with WRP. Can you plant trees on RIM?
Sorry for being longwinded, I'm just trying to play this out in my head and find ways to generate coin from our most coveted asset.
