CSP Applicant:
(Applicant Name)
For those cropland acres you wish to enroll in CSP, please consider
the following required minimum level of treatment.
The minimum
level of treatment for nutrient management on cropland is
Current soil test (within the last three years) which tests for at a minimum P2O5, K2O and pH.
Nitrogen, P2O5, and K2O from commercial fertilizer(s) are applied at or below agronomic rates based on UVM recommendations, a Certified Crop Advisor, or soil test recommendations.
Nitrogen, P2O5, and K2O from manure or other organic by-products are applied according to a nutrient management plan where phosphorus levels are being managed to prevent excessive soil test P levels and nitrogen applications do not exceed the recommended nitrogen rates during the year of application.
Minimum of two years of written records that document these requirements
Current manure or compost test (within last three years) which tests at a minimum for Nitrogen, P2O5 and K2O.
If you believe that you meet the minimum treatment level
requirements, please complete the following Nutrient Management Inventory
Worksheet. This information will help us with assessing the benchmark condition
for this land use. An example is provided to assist you.
