Pheasants Forever Nebraska

Habitat

As the nation’s leading upland wildlife habitat conservation organization, Pheasants Forever is working with farmers, ranchers, landowners, and natural resource agencies to accomplish its mission. To date, Pheasants Forever has impacted over 7.6 million acres in Nebraska through private land conservation programs, chapter projects, and partnerships.

Looking for ways to establish or improve habitat?

Pheasants Forever has a talented team of wildlife biologists ready to assist landowners in finding the right conservation program to meet their personal habitat and land use goals. Farm Bill Wildlife Biologists work one-on-one with landowners in Nebraska to help them enroll in local, state and federal conservation programs. Wildlife biologists also provide technical assistance on how to establish and manage habitat. These positions are part of a unique partnership with Pheasants Forever and its local chapters, the Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) and Nebraska Game and Parks Commission (NGPC).

Our team of Farm Bill and Coordinating Wildlife Biologists provide technical assistance to deliver our conservation mission for pheasants, quail, and other wildlife through habitat improvements.

Pheasants Forever has over 280 different grass, wildflower, and legume species available! We design seed mixes to provide better wildlife habitat and meet the seeding requirements of USDA conservation programs. Interested in a custom seed mix? We can help.

Rent a no-till drill from Pheasants Forever. Over 60 no-till grass drills, funded by the Nebraska Environmental Trust, provide access to specialized equipment for planting seed mixes that benefit soil conservation, water quality, and wildlife habitat.

Nebraska Pheasants Forever works with conservation partners around the state to provide a variety of habitat programs. Each program is designed to benefit pheasants, quail, pollinators, and other wildlife.

Pheasants Forever has led an effort to educate, empower, and align people who share a common goal: the safe and effective use of prescribed fire. Informative workshops, prescribed burn associations, and planning assistance provide the tools for success.

Nebraska Pheasants Forever has a series of videos and fact sheets that offer helpful advice on many different perspectives of habitat conservation and management.

Through our Habitat Share Partnership, Pheasants Forever has impacted over 30,000 acres on state Wildlife Management Areas by contracting services such as disking and interseeding, brush removal, and food plot establishment.
