Put water back on your land
Thanks to the ability of wetlands to moderate moisture, humidity, and temperature, DUC’s Wetland Restoration Program can help you manage risk associated with flooding and drought on your farm operation.
DUC covers all construction and maintenance cost, so you can capitalize on:
- additional forage and stock water
- well-water recharge
- reduced pooling and water erosion during high runoff weather events
- positive microclimate impacts on surrounding cropland
You have two incentive payment options to choose from:
- Receive a one-time payment of $2000/acre on restored wetland acres with a 10-year lease, OR:
- Sign a conservation easement on restored wetland acres and receive 100% of Fair Market Value of those acres.
