First Come, First Served: Applications Now Being Accepted For REAP Farm Conservation Tax Credit Through Sept. 30

The State Conservation Commission is now accepting applications for the Resource Enhancement and Protection Farm Conservation Tax Credit until September 30.

REAP is a first-come, first-served program that enables farmers, businesses, and landowners to earn Pennsylvania income tax credits to offset the cost of implementing conservation practices. 

Tax credits provided by the REAP program help farmers offset the costs of implementing best management practices (BMPs) that benefit their farms and work to protect water quality at the same time.

REAP provides tax credits at levels of 50%, 75%, or 90% of costs incurred in the implementation of BMPs that reduce nitrogen, phosphorus, and sediment pollution.

Visit the REAP Farm Conservation Tax Credit webpage for all the details.  Questions should be directed to (717) 787-8821 or RA-AGSCC-REAP@pa.gov.
