The Michigan Agriculture Environmental Assurance Program (MAEAP) is an innovative, proactive program that helps farms of all sizes and all commodities voluntarily prevent or minimize agricultural pollution risks.

​

This comprehensive, voluntary, proactive program is designed to reduce farmers' legal and environmental risks through a three-phase process:

​

1.) Education

2.) Farm-specific assessment

3.) On-site farm verification

​

The on-farm verification ensures the farmer has implemented environmentally sound practices.

​

The program's three systems (Cropping, Farmstead, and Livestock) each examine different aspects of the farm.  After becoming MAEAP verified, a farm can display a MAEAP sign signifying that MAEAP partners recognize the farm is environmentally assured.  Visit the MAEAP website.
