The State Cost Share program accepts applications year round. However, they are only ranked and submitted for approval once a year, usually in the fall. The current funding period has closed.
Applications for the next funding period, to be submitted for approval in the fall of 2025, are available at the Soil Conservation office. There are several steps to this application process so it is beneficial to start it early. One important thing to know about this program is that it CAN NOT be used for improvements that have already been started. Approval must be received before the project can be started, in order to receive any funding. Cost share rates are a maximum of 75 percent of the actual installation cost of the practice not to exceed $20,000 per year.
