Grant search: answering the questions

One question per step about your land, ownership, and goals — 17 steps, plus a conditional one your answers can unlock, and two optional ones.

After you pick a property, the grant search asks 17 questions — one per step, each with a Back and Continue button. Answer Yes to the financing question and an 18th step appears; two steps are optional. Progress is stored only when you click Save & exit — that draft resumes exactly where you left off.

The full question list

  1. "What is the primary use of your land?" — prefilled from the parcel's record when we can infer it.
  2. "How is your land ownership structured?" — individual, LLC, trust, partnership, corporation, etc.
  3. "Does your property include wetlands, waterways, or seasonal wet areas?"
  4. "Do you have forested land or standing timber?"
  5. "Are there streams, ponds, rivers, or other water features on your land?"
  6. "Is any of your land currently enrolled in a conservation program (CRP, EQIP, CSP, etc.)?"
  7. "Have you been farming or ranching for less than 10 years?"
  8. "Are you a U.S. military veteran or a person with a disability?"
  9. "Is any of your operation certified organic or transitioning to organic?"
  10. "Which types of programs are you most interested in?" (multi-select)
  11. "Which program categories should we include?" (multi-select)
  12. "When did you purchase this land?" — In the last 5 years, 5–10 years ago, or More than 10 years ago.
  13. "Are you interested in land or agriculture financing?"
  14. "Which financing options are you interested in?" — conditional: appears only if you answered Yes to financing.
  15. "When are you hoping to start applying?"
  16. "Do you currently have land or equipment insurance?" — optional.
  17. "Would you consider leasing your land?" — optional, multi-select.

On the optional steps, the Continue button reads Skip until you answer — skipping still produces matches, but answering improves them.
