Helpful Tips to Get Started

After creating an account on our farmer enrollment platform, a member of our staff will be in touch to see if you need any help inputting your farm data. As you get started, it’s helpful to have the following info ready to ensure the payment estimation and contracting process moves as quickly and as accurately as possible:

  • Field maps

  • Operational data

To generate accurate payment estimates, we ask for 3-5 years of historical and projected farm management information. This will include crop and field information such as planting dates, crop rotations, fertilization rates, seeding type and rates, row spacing, yield goal, tillage type, residue management, manure applications, and other necessary field level operational data.

But what do you do with my farm’s data? We believe that you are the owner of the Data that originates from your farm, device, or equipment. We will never sell it. Learn more from our Data and Security Policy.

How our Farmer Enrollment and Payment Process Works

  • STEP 1:

    Use our farmer web portal to create an account, map your field boundaries, and enter baseline and future cropping system information.

  • STEP 2:

    Review the proposed payment offering emailed to you within a few days after data submission and decide if you wish to continue and participate.

  • STEP 3:

    E-sign the contract emailed to you to confirm your participation in the Soil and Water Outcomes Fund. An initial 50% of the contract is paid prior to verification.

  • STEP 4:

    Receive technical assistance from Soil and Water Outcomes Fund field program representatives as needed to implement conservation practices.

  • STEP 5:

    Receive the remaining 25% payment after your farm’s environmental outcomes are measured and verified, typically in the spring. In 2024, participating farmers received an average payment of $33 per acre.
