Grassland Key To Management for Prairie Chickens
Grassland is essential for prairie chicken management. Maintain at least 40 percent grassland in parcels from 20 to several hundred acres and avoid overgrazing. Preserve nesting cover with a tree-free half mile sweep, favoring grasslands with midgrasses like bluegrass and timothy. Winter feeding patches, corn intake, and diverse forage from oats to acorns sustain flocks and support dispersal patterns.
