Conservation groups push youth into wildlife habitat work
Herman Norwood of the Soil Conservation Service says promoting wildlife habitat requires a selling approach as birds are scarce and cooperation daunting. Ottawa QU promotes a free use of a root plow to boost conservation and wildlife, while FFA groups at Central Heights and Williamsburg high schools will hear Culbertson and Johnny Ray discuss food plots seeded with milo, funded by Ottawa QA with cash prizes for top plots. ASCS offices in Franklin, Miami, Anderson, and Douglas counties will manage a no harvest program paying farmers 25 dollars per acre to skip cutting grain along hedgerows, limited to four acres per landowner and the first ten signups.
