I seen on here where some of you have checked into the NRCS programs for assistance, and did not like what you were told so I figured I'd step in and maybe give you guys some info that I have seen some offices do not share with their producers.
50% is not the only EQIP cost share rate, it is only the base rate; beginning or small farmers/rancher 75%; limited resource 90% cost share rate.
If you do not meet the requirements look and see if you children can because most programs can be applied to leased land, if you can produce a written lease or rental agreement.
some specs can vary from state to state but most are establised at the national level, if any of you have question you can see the 2 links below or just ask me, and I'll see if I can help. Also if you are having problems with your county office you can report them to their area office to see if actions can be taken to get them off their @$$
