USDA-NRCS Wyoming Announces February 20 Deadline for Regional Conservation Partnership Programs (RCPP) Sign Up

CASPER, Wyo. - Jan. 28, 2026 - The U.S. Department of Agriculture's Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) Wyoming announces a Feb. 20, 2026, batching deadline for the Regional Conservation Partnership Program (RCPP). This batching date ensures producers have a clear, consistent timeline for participating in RCPP.

"The NRCS team continues its commitment to Wyoming' producers - advancing conservation, strengthening service delivery, and keeping our promise to the men and women who feed and fuel our nation," said Wyoming NRCS State Conservationist Jackie Byam.

NRCS programs are continuous sign-up programs, but due to the government shutdown, the agency is implementing a batching period to ensure producers have access to funding and support.

Sign up includes the following opportunities:

• RCPP
  • Bear River Watershed Agriculture and Habitat Connectivity
    • Land Management Agreements
