Great news for conservation and working grasslands! Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever are proud to support the bipartisan CRP Improvement and Flexibility Act. This bill was introduced yesterday by U.S. Senators John Thune (R-S.D.), Amy Klobuchar (D.-Minn.), Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) and Tina Smith (D-Minn.), who are members of the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry. The bill expands upon legislation introduced in the previous Congress to strengthen the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP). “The Conservation Reserve Program is one of our nation’s most effective tools for improving wildlife habitat, water quality, and soil health on private lands, and is a vital part of the farm safety net,” said Andrew Schmidt, Director of Government Affairs for Pheasants Forever and Quail Forever. “The CRP Improvement and Flexibility Act will make this critical program work better for farmers, ranchers, rural communities, and wildlife. PF & QF are grateful to Majority Leader Thune, Ranking Member Klobuchar, Senator Moran and Senator Smith for their continued leadership in strengthening CRP and ensuring it remains a cornerstone of private lands conservation.” Click the link below to learn more about this legislation. https://bit.ly/3GUYrlD #quailforever #thehabitatorganization

Corridors in the Corn // Prairie Strips Stitch Habitat Back Together Rows of corn and soybeans stretch across the Midwest like a sprawling sea – a monoculture of crops that leaves little room for wildlife habitat. These crops are the backbone of modern agriculture, but they’ve increasingly pushed species like bobwhite quail to the margins, and, in many instances, erased habitat completely. Yet, amid the monoculture of row crops, prairie strips rise like an oasis of wildflowers and swaying native grasses – bringing balance, connectivity, and beauty to the landscape. Prairie strips are exactly what you might imagine – strips of reconstructed tallgrass prairie in agricultural croplands. This management practice is often used to combat biodiversity loss and environmental damage associated with row-crop agriculture. Prairie strips can provide a myriad of benefits by reducing soil erosion, improving soil and water quality, providing wildlife habitat, and simply adding beauty to the landscape.

Quail Fact Friday! Arizona is home to three native quail species: Gambel’s Quail: The desert generalist, found throughout most of Arizona. While commonly associated with desert scrub, they also inhabit semi-desert grasslands, oak chaparral, and even pinyon-juniper woodlands. Scaled Quail: These are restricted to southeastern Arizona, favoring semi-desert grasslands and scrublands. Their scaly plumage helps them blend perfectly into their arid surroundings. Mearns’ Quail: Often found in the Madrean evergreen oak savannahs of Arizona’s Sky Islands. These distinctive quail thrive in the rugged oak-dotted slopes of the southeast. Which Arizona quail is on your hunting bucket list?
