Prescribed Fire - Improving Habitat in the Summer Heat

Prescribed Fire is a critical tool when managing land in a landscape historically burned. Here in southern Missouri our native plants and animals have adapted over time to be more productive with routine fire. On this video, Matt and Chad are working to improve the edge of a couple small food plots. This area has been improved with chainsaws over recent years but the stumps sprouts and saplings are beginning to grow to heights that fire would have difficulty to control. Our goal in these areas are to increase diversity and provide more beneficial forbs, then native grasses, and to set back the woody plants and keep them in a more beneficial height. Don't let the drought get you down! Use the unique conditions to improve habitat.
