Conservation Practices - EQIP Sign-up by County

The NRCS in Tennessee has implemented a lean and local process that streamlines the application and evaluation procedures. The State Technical Committee and Local Work Groups have recommended the practices eligible for financial assistance and the ranking questions that will be used to evaluate each application. County ranking questions and eligible practices available for cost-share can be found below. Each fund code has a different set of ranking questions. All applications will be ranked using national and state questions. The County Base fund code will also include local ranking questions.
