About this episode
Habitat manager Hunter Johnson returns to share his spring plans for three very different properties under his care. From dealing with flooding to battling drought conditions, Johnson relies on a deep toolkit of strategies to create ideal habitat for ducks, deer, and turkeys. He’s also been a leader in implementing prescribed fire in Arkansas, using it to control unwanted vegetation and rejuvenate areas that need a reset. In this episode, Johnson breaks down his approach to using fire, discusses effective moist-soil management techniques, and explains why he favors natural food sources over planted crops.
