About this episode
In this year's final episode of this special Duck Season Somewhere podcast habitat series, the summer sun is beating down, the water is off the site, and our mud flats are greening up with germinating moist-soil vegetation. Now what? USDA NRCS Wildlife Biologist Kevin Nelms walks us through part-art-part-science solutions for producing desired moist-soil management results. What are suggested management practices for controlling undesirable problem plants? What are early successional management practices to set the stage for subsequent growing seasons? And how can we oftentimes kill 2 birds with one stone combining the two? What's Nelms's rule-of-thumb for fall discing? What's a waterfowl wetland complex, and why's it important to know your property's key habitat offerings relative to properties within a 12-mile radius? When and how best to flood our hard-earned waterfowl impoundments? And what about hunting pressure?
