N2  - This study provides new information on the proportion of highly erodible land that occurs within fields used for crop production and analyzes the potential efficiency with which programmes targeted to highly erodible land may be implemented. The Conservation Reserve Program and conservation compliance provision eligibility rules were applied to 1,162 randomly selected maize and soyabean fields in Illinois, Iowa, and Missouri. An estimated 9 percent of the land in fields eligible for the CRP are not highly erodible. About 5 percent of the highly erodible land acreage used to produce maize and soyabeans is not eligible for the CRP because of the soil
