Under a recently launched U.S. Department of Agriculture initiative called Open Fields, landowners can receive a financial incentive in exchange for opening lands to the public for outdoor recreation. "Open Fields gives landowners one more incentive to share with hunters the habitat they're conserving and encourages landowners to use best-management practices for maintaining that habitat," said Dr. Scott Stephens, DU director of conservation planning for Ducks Unlimited's Great Plains Region. Plans for the legislation were originally announced in Ducks Unlimited's Great Plains Regional Office by its sponsor, U.S. Sen. Kent Conrad (ND). Approved in the 2008 Farm Bill, Open Fields will provide $[SIZE=4][COLOR=#ff0000]50 million[/COLOR][/SIZE] for states to create or expand voluntary hunter-access programs on private lands. DU worked with partners in the wildlife community to support the measure in Congress and obtain funding for it. Estimates are Open Fields could open more than 4 million new acres of private land to public hunting and fishing annually. [/QUOTE]
