[QUOTE="dave_shelby, post: 1713931, member: 22579"] Done it for stream exclusion, fencing out a branch and installing well and water troughs. Im in Virginia so expect to see more political pressure to keep cattle out of water in the coming years. I also did it for crop conversion and am thinking about doing a winter feeding pad in the coming years. The agent assigned to you makes all of the difference. In our area you can use either NRCS or Lord Fairfax, so you can shop your ideas. There is sometimes ample room for negotation, so make sure you advocate for what you want and see if they can support. If you do work yourself (I contracted the water system out, did conversion myself) record everything so you can bill your time and materials. Unlike Kenny, the org I worked with didnt pay out until completion (which is why I contracted the water system out, as it would have taken me a year to complete.) [/QUOTE]
