2008 Pheasant Hunting Forecast
All across the Midwest and Upper Midwest, signs are pointing to an excellent pheasant hunting season. The typical pheasant powerhouses - South and North Dakota, Iowa, Kansas, Minnesota, and Nebraska - will again top the list. Unfortunately, because of the potential for massive habitat losses this year and next, namely Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) acres under soon-to-expire contracts, we may soon be referring to 2007 as "the good old days."

On the Wing: September 2008
In 1908, a few wild Chinese Ring-necked Pheasants were released into a field in Redfield, South Dakota. No one could have imagined the impact one little game bird would have on a state's economy. One hundred years later, this majestic bird is still providing outdoor enthusiasts from around the world with pleasures of the mind, eye and palate.

Announcement includes updated soil rental rates and added incentives for allowing hunting access to CRP lands
October 14, 2008:
Pheasants Forever was pleased by three recent major announcements related to the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) announced by the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA). First, the USDA launched new incentive payments for landowners who open up their CRP to public access. Second, the USDA announced it has updated CRP soil rental rates. Both announcements came in a week when the USDA also released a study highlighting the immense benefits of CRP.
