Abstract
This interim rule amends the regulations at 7 CFR Part 704 and 7 CFR Part 1410 to allow holders of Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) contracts the opportunity to request and receive early release from contracts or to reduce the amount of acreage subject to the contracts. The purpose of the early release of acreage by current contract holders is to allow enrollment of new acreage in CRP which will meet higher environmental and conservation criteria. This action is required to implement provisions announced by the Secretary of Agriculture on December 14, 1994.
