Township Review & Approval

Township Review & Approval


  1. All townships within Berks County that have an ASA have more than 250 acres enrolled.
  2. New parcels of farmland may be added to an established ASA at any time. Note: Many townships have specific enrollment periods for ease in processing.  Please contact the Berks County Department of Agriculture Office or Township to determine if there is an enrollment period.
  3. Townships review enrollment in Agricultural Security Areas every seven years; at which time, parcels may be added or withdrawn from the ASA.
