Article Details:
Thousands of farmers are taking their fields out of the government’s biggest conservation program, which pays them not to cultivate.

Last fall, they took back as many acres as are in Rhode Island and Delaware combined. Environmental and hunting groups are warning that years of progress could soon be lost.
