PROSPECT, TENNESSEE | Here, It depends on how long, and how intensive you get on how much the payment is... I have enrolled in a three year, 5 species mix, it pays really good. I have about half my acres enrolled, and it pays for the other half of my cover crop acres seed, plus pays drill maintenance 100%.
That said, I really don't care for their rates and blends after using them for two years. I have developed my own and have shown NRCS how they work, but still they insist on their rates and blends to participate. Also, planting deadlines really stress harvest season, gathering a crop and planting one can be aggravating. We have been doing it for years, so it just seems natural to us now. BTW, its paid per acre here...
