Burn warm-season grass stands to benefit native wildflowers and quail-brooding cover

 Jeff Powelson, Private Land Conservationist, St. Joseph
Now is a great time to prepare for next year’s summer beauty as well as next year’s brooding cover for upland birds.

As always, check with your local Missouri Department of Conservation office to determine if weather conditions are appropriate for burning. Burning should not be attempted in areas of Missouri which are still experiencing drought conditions .

Key Messages: 

Conservation makes Missouri a great place to hunt and fish.
