CRP is a great value in the Richardson County area. The Rogge family believes that many of the acres now enrolled in CRP should never have been farmed in the first place. The land the Rogges have enrolled in CRP now looks much like the native grasslands they also own.

CRP has had a tremendous impact on upland gamebirds, grassland songbirds and deer.

CRP has really helped eliminate soil erosion on the Rogge farm. In the past, ditches would occur in the fields after a heavy rain. Now that the fields are planted to grass, all that has stopped. This has also been a big help in keeping the Rogges' run-off ponds from silting in due to soil erosion.

Garrett, Mike, and Andrew Rogge are pleased with the results from time spent together hunting on the family's CRP acreage.
