路易斯安那州再生农业试点新增七项措施：2027财年全国资助增至10亿美元
美国农业部（USDA）自然资源保护局（NRCS）路易斯安那州办公室11月6日在该州 Rapides Parish 的 Alexandria 宣布，2027财年再生农业试点计划在路易斯安那州新增七项可资助的保护措施，参加试点的农场主与牧场主即日起可通过当地 NRCS 服务中心按单一申请流程申报。
新增的七项措施是：河岸森林缓冲带（391）、乔灌木种植（612）、林牧复合（381）、河岸草本覆盖（390）、牧场与干草种植（512）、草皮水道（412）与田边带（386）。自然资源保护局表示，这批措施经由该局的地方主导保护模式选定，由州技术咨询委员会按本地资源关切、生产体系与生产者需求推荐，用来补充全国统一的核心措施清单。
自然资源保护局路易斯安那州保护专家 Sarah Trichel 表示，再生农业试点让生产者通过一份申请就能获得整场式的保护解决方案，新增措施让生产者在规划与实施再生做法时有更大的灵活度与更多选择；她说，这一更新体现了农业部把农民放在首位、建设更健康、更有韧性的食物系统的承诺。
资金方面，农业部把再生农业试点2027财年的资助从7亿美元提高到10亿美元，其中环境质量激励计划（EQIP）投入6.5亿美元、保护管理计划（CSP）投入3.5亿美元，用于该试点第二年的再生农业项目。生产者可以把多项再生措施打包进一份申请，初入行与资深生产者均可参加。
2027财年的另一项调整是降低门槛：保护管理计划原要求申请人须就其全部土地处理已识别的关键土壤与水资源关切，新年度这一比例降到75%，整场规划与以成果为导向的做法保持不变；农田、放牧地与林地的监测评估也提供多种可选方式。
有意参加的农场主与牧场主可全年随时向当地自然资源保护局服务中心申请，环境质量激励计划与保护管理计划的资助都走同一套再生农业申请流程。自然资源保护局隶属美国农业部，九十多年来通过自愿、激励式的保护计划向农牧林业生产者提供一对一技术建议与资金协助。

Louisiana Adds Seven Practices to Regenerative Pilot Program as FY2027 Funding Rises to $1 Billion
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's (USDA) Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) in Louisiana announced in Alexandria, Rapides Parish, on November 6 that seven additional conservation practices will be eligible in the state under the Regenerative Pilot Program in fiscal year 2027, giving local producers more options to adopt conservation systems that improve soil health, water quality and long-term farm resilience. Producers can now apply for assistance with the practices through their local NRCS Service Center under a single regenerative application process.
The seven practices added in Louisiana are Riparian Forest Buffer (391), Tree/Shrub Establishment (612), Silvopasture (381), Riparian Herbaceous Cover (390), Pasture and Hay Planting (512), Grassed Waterway (412), and Field Border (386). NRCS said the additions were selected through its locally led conservation model, under which State Technical Advisory Committees recommend practices that reflect local resource concerns, production systems and producer needs, complementing the program's core practices available nationwide.
"The Regenerative Pilot Program offers producers a comprehensive, whole-farm conservation solution to resource concerns through a single application. Including these additional practices allows producers greater flexibility and options when planning and implementing regenerative practices as part of the program," said Sarah Trichel, NRCS State Conservationist in Louisiana. She said the update demonstrates USDA's commitment to putting farmers first and advancing a healthier, more resilient food system.
For fiscal year 2027, USDA increased financial assistance for the Regenerative Pilot Program from $700 million to $1 billion, dedicating $650 million through the Environmental Quality Incentives Program (EQIP) and $350 million through the Conservation Stewardship Program (CSP) to fund the second year of regenerative agriculture projects. Producers can bundle multiple regenerative practices into one application, and the program is designed for both beginning and advanced producers.
Another fiscal year 2027 change lowers the barrier to entry: for the Conservation Stewardship Program, the requirement to address Louisiana's identified critical soil and water resource concern drops from 100% of an applicant's land to 75%, while whole-farm planning and the outcome-based approach are preserved. The program also provides multiple monitoring and evaluation options tailored to cropland, grazing lands and forestry operations.
Farmers and ranchers interested in regenerative agriculture can sign up anytime throughout the year at their local NRCS Service Center, with applications for both EQIP and CSP submitted under the single regenerative application process. For more than 90 years, NRCS has helped farmers, ranchers and forestland owners invest in their operations through voluntary, incentive-based conservation programs, providing one-on-one technical advice and financial assistance.
