This program is THE single best way to impact pheasant habitat at the incredible scale needed to bring back the good old days. There's room for wildlife on every farm. FBBs help to match economic needs of the farm with habitat needs of the birds.

The science says we need 22 million additional acres of grass if we are going to bring pheasant and bobwhite populations back. USDA’s commitment is an incredible down payment toward that goal!

Congress hasn't adjusted the payment cap since 1985. Apparently inflation doesn't impact farmers. Thanks to Senators John Thune and Amy Klobuchar for dispelling this myth and introducing a common sense solution. Now, about those low rental rates... bit.ly/3NTJUqV

Walked 14 miles of grassland for this bird (and Murphy did twice that). But we were getting his first bird today if it killed us both… and it almost did. Thanks Minnesota DNR Pheasants Forever Federal Premium for a great new memory

Take action for public lands! Tens of thousands of acres of OUR public lands in great bird hunting states like Utah and Nevada could be offered for sale through the budget reconciliation bill moving through Congress, with no opportunity for sportsmen and women to have a say.

If you haven’t done this yet, click the link and let your Senators know that selling our public land to pay for new spending is NOT an option.
