Agricultural Producers Can Share Their Input in the Midwest Farm Conservation Survey

By Ana Heck

Pollinator Partnership is collaborating with the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to survey Midwestern agricultural producers in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Missouri, Ohio and Wisconsin. The goal of the survey is to better understand producer preferences related to on‑farm conservation programs, including the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP).

Pollinator Partnership requests Midwestern agricultural producers to take the Midwest Farm Conservation Survey, regardless of whether they have participated in USDA or other conservation programs. This voluntary survey takes about 15 minutes to complete. Anonymous responses will help Pollinator Partnership advise the USDA on how it can best support Midwest growers in creating habitat on farms and help influence future conservation program updates.
